Project Research
Some Resources

• Proteopedia - this is a wiki page so it's not technically a reliable web source but it might help you understand your protein better
• Protein Structures - to get an idea of size and shapes of different types of proteins
• What is a protein video - talks about how the structure connects to the function of different proteins
• The Role of the Active Site - talks about how active/binding sites work
