N2 - Proteins are undoubtedly the most important functional units in living organisms, and there are tens of thousands of different proteins in the human body. Understanding how these proteins work is crucial to the understanding of the complex biological functions and malfunctions that occur in diseases. This paper briefly reviews the fundamental building blocks of proteins, their primary and secondary structure.
