Proteins are made of amino acids hooked end-to-end like beads on a necklace. To simulate. a protein, you will make a model of your protein using a long chenille stem (the fuzzy. covered wire) and colored beads.
Proteins are made of a chain of 20 different types of amino acid molecules. This chain folds up into a compact shape, rather like an untidy ball of string. The shape of the protein is determined by the sequence of amino acids along its chain and it is this shape that, in turn, determines what the protein does.
