Amino Acids Elements Protein Structure Primary Linear Sequence

Protein structure includes primary (amino acid sequence), secondary (local folding like alpha helices/beta sheets), tertiary (overall 3D shape), and quaternary (multiple polypeptide interactions).

Elemente der Proteinstruktur: 1) primär: lineare Sequenz von Aminosäuren 2) sekundär: lokale Faltung von Aminosäuren (z.B. Alpha-Helix, Beta-Falte) 3) tertiär: globale Faltung, 3D-Form, die freie Energie minimiert 4) quaternär: Wechselwirkungen zwischen mehreren Polypeptiden

Text Elements of Protein Structure:
1) primary: linear sequence of amino acids
2) secondary: local folding of amino acids (e.g. alpha helix, beta sheet)
3) tertiary: global folding, 3D shape which minimizes free energy
4) quaternary: interactions between multiple polypeptides
