Q

Polymerization of Amino Acid (Steps)

A

1- Amino acid monomers join by dehydration
2- form peptide bonds between amino acids
3- Polypeptides chain fold to form protiens
4-Once folded the protein assumes its functional form

Q

How to polypeptide form a functional protiens

A

1- Polypeptide folds to archive a final shape and gets modified with smaller adaptor groups
2- It may be directed to the correct compartment in the cell
3- It may be connected to other proteins to do a joint function

Q

4 hierarchical levels of protein structure

A

Primary- Sequence of amino acids
secondary- How the primary structure is folded
tertiary- Final shape of folded polypeptide
quaternary- Subunits join to form functional proteins
