Proteins are very important molecules in our cells . They are involved in virtually all cell functions. Each protein within the body has a specific function. Some proteins are involved in structural support, while others are involved in bodily movement, or in defense against germs. Proteins vary in structure as well as function. They are constructed from a set of 20 amino acids and have distinct three-dimensional shapes.

Mechanism
The most complex post-translational
modification.
The donor molecule is often an activated
nucleotide sugar.
It is a site-specific modification.
