The role of the protein in a amino acid.
|
|
|
The role of the amino acid in a protein.
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrogen bonding between amino groups and carboxyl groups in neighboring regions of the protein chain sometimes causes certain patterns of folding to occur. Known as alpha helices and beta sheets, these stable folding patterns make up the secondary structure of a protein.
Detailed explanation-2: -The actual order of the amino acids in the protein is called its primary structure and is determined by DNA.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tertiary (3D) structure is a shape resulting from folding of secondary structures determined by interactions between side chains of amino acids.
