STRUCTURE OF PROTEINS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The primary structure of a protein has the following bonds?
A
Hydrogen
B
Peptide
C
Peptide and Hydrogen
D
Peptide, Hydrogen, ionic
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Peptide bonds are formed by a biochemical reaction that extracts a water molecule as it joins the amino group of one amino acid to the carboxyl group of a neighboring amino acid. The linear sequence of amino acids within a protein is considered the primary structure of the protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the polypeptide chain, the main structure of a protein relates to the amino acid sequence. The primary structure is bound together by peptide bonds that are made during the phase of protein biosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: A protein’s primary structure is defined solely by its amino acid sequence, and is constructred by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acid residues. Secondary structure results from hydrogen bonding along the polypeptide backbone, resulting in alpha-helices and beta-pleated sheets.

Detailed explanation-4: -The primary structure is comprised of a linear chain of amino acids. The secondary structure contains regions of amino acid chains that are stabilized by hydrogen bonds from the polypeptide backbone. These hydrogen bonds create alpha-helix and beta-pleated sheets of the secondary structure.

Detailed explanation-5: -Peptide bond: A covalent bond joining the -amino group of one amino acid to the carboxyl group of another with the loss of a water molecule. From: Storing Digital Binary Data in Cellular DNA, 2020.
