Proteins in an egg contribute to its composition in several ways, primarily through the egg white (albumen) and yolk. The egg white contains about 60% of the egg's total protein, providing structure and protection for the developing embryo, while also containing enzymes and nutrients. The yolk is rich in proteins that serve as a source of energy and essential nutrients for growth. Together, these proteins play critical roles in the egg's functionality in cooking, baking, and nutrition.
