Proteins: Structure, Function, and Interactions

This lecture covers the fundamentals of proteins, including their classification, structure, and functions. The instructor explains the importance of protein structure in enzymatic activity and the role of amino acids in forming protein structures. The lecture also delves into the concept of chiral centers in amino acids and their impact on protein interactions. Additionally, the lecture touches on the significance of protein interactions in biological processes and the implications of using L- versus D-amino acids in protein synthesis.
