Protein Structure and Function, active site

The unique amino acid sequence of a protein is reflected in its unique folded structure. This structure, in turn, determines the protein’s function. This is why mutations that alter amino acid sequence can affect the function of a protein. Problem: Which of the following statements are true about protein structure? A) All proteins have a quaternary structure B) Disulfide bridges primarily maintain secondary structures, as opposed to tertiary C) pH does not change the charge of a protein D) A protein’s function depends on its spatial conformation E) None of the other answers are true #proteinStructure #proteinFunction #polypeptide #activeSite #aminoAcids #biology #bioinformatics #Genetics #NikolaysGeneticsLessons #protein #aminoAcid #peptide #disulfideBridges #covalentBounding #ionicBounding #hydrophobicInteraction #proteinSequence #proteinFolding #proteins #Polypeptides #ImidazolRing #Histidine #polypeptideChain #oligopeptide #hydrolysesSynthesis #condensationReaction
