Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Bonding responsible for secondary structure of protein and atoms involved are to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Many amino acids are linked together through amide bonds to form a biologically large molecule known to be proteins.
Amino
Secondary structure of protein is the repeating structural patterns (
Hydrogen bonding is an electrostatic attraction between hydrogen and an electronegative atom.

- List the attractive interactions involved in secondary, tertiary, and quaternary protein structure.arrow_forwardWhy is the 3-Dimensional structure important for protein function? What factors or agents can denature protein structure? Give examples (more than one factor) Why denaturation affect the function of proteins? Explain the structure - function relationship.arrow_forwardIn general, proteins can be classified into 3 different groups. Name and give a short description of each type and how they are distinct from one another. Provide an example of macromolecule or other complex structure representing each of the three types.arrow_forward
