STRUCTURE OF NUCLEIC ACIDS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The primary structure of a protein
A
the sequence of amino acids
B
interactions between polypeptides
C
only hydrogen bonds between R groups
D
disulfide bridges, ionic bonds, or other interactions between R-groups
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To reiterate, the primary structure of a protein is defined as the sequence of amino acids linked together to form a polypeptide chain. Each amino acid is linked to the next amino acid through peptide bonds created during the protein biosynthesis process.

Detailed explanation-2: -The linear sequence of amino acids within a protein is called the primary structure of the protein. A sequence of just twenty amino acids, each of which has a special side chain, is made up of proteins. The side chains of amino acids are chemically distinct.

Detailed explanation-3: -The primary structure of a protein refers to the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The primary structure is held together by peptide bonds that are made during the process of protein biosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -The shape of a protein is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids). The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the gene (DNA) encoding it.
