Protein Prezi Project

Record protein name here: _________________

Directions - Creating your Prezi

• You will need to complete the research before you begin making the Prezi.

• Once you have had your teacher check in your research, you will have to create a free Prezi account using the Prezi app on the iPad.

• When creating the Prezi, you may decide what information is to be placed together within the presentation.

• When your Prezi is complete, you will need to share the Prezi with your teacher.

• Your Prezi will be graded based upon completion of the assignment as directed, and as a portion of Learning Targets 7 and 8.

Research and record the following information about your protein.

1. Name your protein.

2. Name an organism that has this protein.

3. Name the body system that this protein is part of or connected to.

4. Name the cell that this protein works in or with.

5. Determine the first 10 amino acids in this protein.

______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______

6. Determine the function of this protein in your own words.

STOP – Check in with your teacher before you move on

7. Think/pair/share with a classmate.

a. Record the name of your class mate’s protein and write out the ten amino acids for their protein.

Class mates name ____________________________________

Protein name __________________________

______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______ ______

b. Compare your protein sequence to your classmates. Why are the functions of the two proteins different? Use the structure or the amino acid sequence of the protein to aid in your reasoning.

8. Your Prezi should include the following pictures;

□ The organism that has your protein

□ The body part or tissue where the protein is found

□ A model of the ten amino acid sequence – use shapes and color to represent the amino acids. No two amino acids can have the same shape and color.

Note: Your Prezi can have more pictures if you like.

□ Be prepared to present your Prezi to the class on ___________

Protein Prezi Project – Prezi Notes

Directions: Review other students’ Prezis. While reviewing the Prezis, search for a protein that fits into each group of proteins listed below. Make sure to explain each choice. Note: if you can’t find any proteins in a specific group, you may search the internet.
