Detailed explanation-1: -Secondary Structure of Protein Secondary structure of protein refers to local folded structures that form within a polypeptide due to interactions between atoms of the backbone.
Detailed explanation-2: -The tertiary structure is primarily due to interactions between the R groups of the amino acids that make up the protein.
Detailed explanation-3: -Protein backbone is what holds a protein together and gives it an overall shape (or tertiary structure). Compared to RNA and DNA backbone, protein backbone has a relatively simple chemical structure-a nitrogen atom, two carbon atoms, one or two oxygen atoms, and a few hydrogens.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The secondary structure refers to a protein’s polypeptide backbone chain. Alpha helix is one of the secondary structures a protein can have.
