What is a C terminal and N terminal in the protein?
Proteins are composed of amino acids, which are composed of a central Carbon atom surrounded by (bonded to) four groups; an amine, a carboxyl group, an R group (also known as a side chain), and a Hydrogen atom. When amino acids link together via peptide bonding to from polypeptides/proteins (A protein is a polypeptide), the amine group of one amino acid interacts with the carboxyl group of another. Therefore, you end up with an amine group on one end of the protein and a carboxyl group on the other. They call the end with the amine on it the "N terminus" because the chemical formula for amine is NH2 while the end with the carboxyl group on it is named the "C terminal" because the chemical formula of a carboxyl is CH2. The N terminus is the end that amino acids are added onto when mRNA is translated in protein synthesis. Therefore, we write that proteins are created N terminus to C terminus.
