What are proteins?
... Proteins are organic compounds. Proteins contain the following elements: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, as well as nitrogen. Proteins are made of many units called amino acids. Amino acids are compounds with an amino group (NH2) on one end and a carboxyl group (-COOH) on the other end. There are 20 ...
