  • 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
