Detailed explanation-1: -The primary structure of a protein-its amino acid sequence-drives the folding and intramolecular bonding of the linear amino acid chain, which ultimately determines the protein’s unique three-dimensional shape.
Detailed explanation-2: -The amino acid sequence of a protein determines its three-dimensional shape.
Detailed explanation-3: -The actual order of the amino acids in the protein is called its primary structure and is determined by DNA. The order of deoxyribonucleotide bases in a gene determines the amino acid sequence of a particular protein.
Detailed explanation-4: -The overall three-dimensional structure of a polypeptide is called its tertiary structure. The tertiary structure is primarily due to interactions between the R groups of the amino acids that make up the protein.
