Proteins are very important molecules in our cells. They are involved in virtually all cell functions. Each protein within the body has a specific function.
Some proteins are involved in structural support, while others are involved in bodily movement, or in defense against germs.
Below is a list of a few types of proteins and their functions:
* Antibodies - defend the body from germs.
* Contractile Proteins - responsible for movement.
* Enzymes - speed up chemical reactions.
