Structure
Function == Fibrous proteins are usually static molecules and play important structural roles in the anatomy and physiology of vertebrates, providing external protection, support, shape, and form.
Disease == Fibrous dysplasia is an uncommon bone disorder in which scar-like (fibrous) tissue develops in place of normal bone.
Relevance == A Fibrous protein is a protein with an elongated shape. Fibrous proteins provide structural support for cells and tissues
Structural highlights == They are made up of polypeptide chains that are elongated and fibrous in nature or have a sheet like structure. These fibers and sheets are mechanically strong and are water insoluble.
This is a sample scene created with SAT to by Group, and another to make of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
