Detailed explanation-1: -The tertiary structure of a protein refers to the overall three-dimensional arrangement of its polypeptide chain in space. It is generally stabilized by outside polar hydrophilic hydrogen and ionic bond interactions, and internal hydrophobic interactions between nonpolar amino acid side chains (Fig.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tertiary structure refers to the three-dimensional arrangement of all atoms in a protein. Tertiary structure is formed by the folding in three dimensions of the secondary structure elements of a protein.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tertiary structure is the next level up from the secondary structure, and is the particular three-dimensional arrangement of all the amino acids in a single polypeptide chain.
