Chapter 4, Problem 16Q
Summary Introduction

To explain: Whether the fragment of polypeptide chain folds the same way as it would in an intact protein.

Introduction: The proteins can be described structurally as domains or motifs. The particular arrangement of amino acids or else the secondary structure commonly found in other proteins is called the motifs in a protein. When that particular arrangement is associated with a particular function is called as the domain of a protein. These domains independently fold to form a stable structure and perform its function. A protein may contain single or otherwise multiple domains.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The fragments of the protein domain that fold properly as the intact protein in Fig. 4-20 in the textbook.
