  • 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).
