| Front | Protein Shape (4 Levels) |
|---|---|
| Back | Primary--the linear formation of an amino acid chain Secondary--the helical structure made by hydrogen bonds (a coil of amino acid chains) Tertiary--most important! Coils of amino acids making a structure, like a cloud of coils...polypeptide chain. Most responsible for protein shape, which signifies its function. Quarternary--Some proteins have multiple polypeptide chains, so they have a quarternary structure. Basically 2 tertiary structures together, or 3, 4... |
