Hello aspirant,

• Fibrous proteins that are formed and found in muscle fibers, tendons and connective tissues. Ex- Actin, Collagen, Nebulin, Myosin, Elastin etc.
• Globular Proteins that are water soluble in nature an helps in transporting nd regulating the bodily functions. Ex- Albumins, Fibrin, Thrombin, Myoglobin, Hemoglobin etc.
• Membrane Proteins that relay signals and allow interaction within cells and also in transporting molecules. Ex- Histones, Rhodopsin, Hydrolases etc.

Foods present in proteins are- Tuna Fish, Soya beans, Cheese, Almonds, Eggs, Spinach, Yoghurt etc.

Hope, it helps you.
