Pea protein has many benefits to our human body. Pea protein is suitable for any group of people. Pea protein is a product that is very easily absorbed. Therefore, we can eat more pea protein. Different groups of pea protein have different effects and functions.
Amino acids are the basic units that make up proteins. Amino acids are linked into peptide chains through dehydration and condensation. A protein is a biological macromolecule composed of one or more polypeptide chains. Each polypeptide chain has 20 to hundreds of amino acid residues (-R); various amino acid residues are arranged in a certain order. The amino acid sequence of the protein is encoded by the corresponding gene. In addition to the 20 basic amino acids encoded by the genetic code, in proteins, certain amino acid residues can also be post-translationally modified to undergo chemical structural changes, thereby activating or regulating the protein. Multiple proteins can work together, often by joining together to form a stable protein complex, folding or spiraling to form a certain spatial structure, so as to perform a specific function. The organelles that synthesize peptides are ribosomes on the rough-faced endoplasmic reticulum in the cytoplasm. The difference of protein lies in the type, number, arrangement order and spatial structure of peptide chain.
Pea protein is divided into complete protein and incomplete protein. Rich in essential amino acids, high-quality protein is collectively referred to as complete protein, such as milk, eggs, fish, meat, etc., which belong to complete protein. Soybeans in plants also contain complete protein. Proteins lacking in essential amino acids or low in content are called incomplete proteins, such as the protein contained in cereals, wheat, and corn, and the gelatin in animal skins and bones.
