Proteins are nitrogenous compounds being made up of carbon,

hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. Proteins also contain sulphur. In living

systems proteins play an important role in the structural organisation eg.,

cell membrane, hairs, nails and muscles. Many of the proteins serve as

enzymes. They are named as functional proteins.
