    • The primary structure of a protein refers to its linear arrangement of amino acid residues.
    • The primary structure of a protein refers to its linear arrangement of amino acid residues.
    • Protein structure is determined by the sequence of amino acids, which can be altered through mutations or genetic engineering.
    • Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
    • Secondary structures are localized regions within the polypeptide chain that have regular spatial arrangements, such as alpha-helices or beta sheets.
    • Amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds between their carboxyl group (COOH) and amine group (-NH2).
    • There are 20 different types of amino acids found in proteins.
    • Amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds, forming the backbone of the protein.
    • Amino acids are joined together by peptide bonds between their carboxyl group (COOH) and amine group (-NH2).
