Nature of Proteins Effect of pH on solubility, denaturing proteins, hydrolysis in strong base, binding to coomassie blue, dying wool and cotton, gel filtration column, reaction of ninhydrin with amino acids and precipitating protein with ammonium sulfate are demonstrated.
Proteins / Peptides
Protein Reactions Curdling milk, decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by catalase, glucose oxidase activity, hydrolyzing of sucrose with invertase, and using an enzyme to halt the Briggs-Rauscher reaction are demonstrated. Inhibiting the enzyme HIV-1 protease may slow the spread of AIDS.

Denaturation of Protein by Strong AcidJohn W. Moore, Jerrold J. Jacobsen, Gary Trammell, Kristin Johnson "Strong acid denatures egg white proteins.This video contains voiceover:""The tertiary structure of egg white proteins is held together by hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Adding strong acid to the protein disrupts the intermolecular forces, and the tertiary structure is lost. The loss in protein structure is called denaturation. The proteins precipitate, forming a white solid."""
OMLeT—An Alternative Approach to Learning Metabolism: Glycolysis and the TCA Cycle as an ExampleCharles M. Stevens, Dylan M. Silver, Brad Behm, Raymond J. Turner, and Michael G. Surette Using PHP Hypertext Preprocessor scripting, the dynamic OMLeT (Online Metabolism Learning Tool) Web site is geared towards different learning styles and allows the student to process metabolic pathways (glycolysis and TCA cycle) via a user-defined approach. Stevens, Charles M.; Silver, Dylan M.; Behm, Brad; Turner, Raymond J.; Surette, Michael G. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 2024.

The A1c Blood Test: An Illustration of Principles from General and Organic ChemistryRobert C. Kerber The glycated hemoglobin blood test is a key measure of the effectiveness of glucose control in diabetics. The chemistry of glucose in the bloodstream, which underlies the test and its impact, provides an illustration of the importance of chemical equilibrium and kinetics to a major health problem. Kerber, Robert C. . J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 1541.

Nature's Way To Make the LantibioticsHeather A. Relyea and Wilfred A. van der Donk This article focuses on one class of antimicrobial compounds, the lantibiotics, and discusses their biosynthetic pathways as well as their molecular mode of action. In the course of the review, the meaning of the terms regio-, chemo-, and stereoselectivity are discussed. Relyea, Heather A.; van der Donk, Wilfred A. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 1769.
