Q

What are the levels of protein structure? (4)

A

Primary Structure - first level, sequence of amino acids joined by peptide bonds

Secondary Structure - Hydrogen bonds interactions are responsible, beta sheet or alpha helix formed

Tertiary Structure - half proteins in your body are done by this one, other chemicals in the reaction groups cause the shape changes (unpredictable think ugly ribbon)

Quaternary Structure - two pieces of protein are made separately as subunits (polypeptide chain) or preformed subunits put together to form protein
