Proteins are the body building biomacromolecule seen in the body. Proteins are biopolymers of the basic twenty aminoacids through peptide bonds. Proteins have different levels of structure - Primary, secondary, tertiary (single peptide protein) and quarternary structure (Subunit proteins). Proteins are either globular or fibrillar in nature. Proteins can be classified based on the conjugation and function as follows: * Receptor protein - Photoreceptor Rhodopsin * Nucleoprotein - Histones * Metalloprotein - Haemoglobin, myoglobin - respiratory pigments * skeletal and muskular proteins - actin, myosin, dystrophin * Membrane protein - seen in lipoprotein membrane, RBCs as antigens * Facilitating proteins - Chaperones or heat shock proteins * Structural proteins - keratin, collagen * Immunoproteins - immunoglobulins * Enzymes and hormones - trypsin, insulin

What are the acids in your body?
Hydrochloric acid (present in the stomach) and amino acids (basic components of proteins and some enzymes).
What is the group of proteins that are always present in the body to help white blood cells ingest microorganisms?
The group of proteins that are always present in the body to help white blood cells ingest microorganisms is called complement proteins. Complement proteins work alongside white blood cells to enhance the immune response by promoting inflammation, attracting phagocytes, and directly killing pathogens. They form an essential part of the innate immune system.
