Figure 6 shows three examples of how secondary structure elements can be arranged
in relation to one another in the functional, folded form of a complete protein or one
compact portion of a protein. The overall three-dimensional shape (or conformation)
of a protein is its tertiary structure.
• What do you think holds together the various secondary structural elements in a
particular three-dimensional pattern? (Hint: Look back at Figure 5 - what is
sticking out from the sides of the a-helices and B-strands?)
