Function of Enzymes
catalysts speed up chemical RXNs
Function of Transporter Proteins
transport ions like sodium, potassium, chlorine ions across the cell membrane
Function of Recognition Proteins
recognize hormones, chemicals like nerotransmitters, viruses
Function of Bacteriocins
for killing other bacteria during competition
Bacterial exotoxins
cause harm to the host botulinum toxin

hormones
chemical mediaters

anatibodies
defense

glafellin
protein movement

pilin protein
genetic transfer

tolde of D glutamic acid in bacteria like Yersinia and Bacillus anthracis
they protect bacteria from serum proteins like comple,ent which triggers phagocytosis/ inflammation and cytolysis once it is activated by pathogen
role of conjugated proteins in microbial cells

lipoproteins gm
cell wall act as barrier against bile salts, lysozyme which can harm the bacteria and other serum proteins like complement that defend the host
glycoproteins
blue prints of eukaryotic cells

phosphoproteins

help hide and invade the host defenses
