Summary Introduction

To review:

The polypeptide structure having only one possible structure.

Introduction:

Amino acids act as monomers to form a polypeptide. The amino acids in a polypeptide are bound through peptide bonds. A single chain of the polypeptide is a simple protein. Each polypeptide has one amino-terminal (N-terminal) and a carboxyl-terminal (C-terminal).

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
what is a protein that contains a b-sheet and how does the secondary structure contributes to the overall function of the protein.
draw and annotate a b-sheet and lable the hydrogen bonding. what is an example that contains the b-sheet and how the secondary structure contributes to the overall function of your example protein.
Four distinct classes of interactions (inter and intramolecular forces) contribute to a protein's tertiary and quaternary structures. Name the interaction then describe the amino acids that can form this type of interaction. Draw and annotate a diagram of the interaction between two amino acids.
