    • Protein's Monomer: amino acids; Polymer: Polypeptides
    • The secondary step for proteins (folding of amino acids) is due to the hydrogen bonds
    • Proteins have 4 levels of structure:
      1. Primary Structure - sequencing of them by the order it goes
      2. Secondary Structure - The folding pattern of amino acids
      3. Tertiary Structure - folding into a 3-D shape because of side chains
      4. Quaternary Structure - 2+ Amino Acids interacting and combining with eachother
