Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The roughly spherical shape of proteins needs to be described.
Concept introduction:
Protein − proteins are composed of the different types of amino acids and they are bonded together with the help of the peptide bonds.
The tertiary structure of proteins formed with complex folding of the amino acid chain. The polypeptides chains are connected and form a coiled tertiary structure of the protein.
Answer to Problem 45A
The globular proteins are found with rough shapes.
Explanation of Solution
The globular proteins are characterized by the roughly spherical shape. The complex structure is present in the globular proteins.
The tertiary structure of proteins formed with complex folding of secondary proteins formed the tertiary structure of proteins. The globular proteins are composed of tertiary structure.
