There is no general structural formula for proteins-all proteins are different, but all are made up of amino acids, which have the general formula NH3CHRCOOH, with the R being the group that makes each of the 20 amino acids unique-the simplest of the R groups is a hydrogen atom. Some proteins also have prosthetic groups, like heamoglobin, which has four haem groups that contain iron ions.
