Expert Solution
Step 1

A polypeptide chain must fold to its proper three dimensional structure in order to be biologically active. 

There are four levels of structural organization in proteins, primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure.

The folded protein is held together by noncovalent interactions like hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction, electrostatic interaction and Vander Waals interaction.
