Amino Acids and Levels of Protein Structure

Amino Acids and Levels of Protein Structure

1. Introduction
2. Monomers and polymers (dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis reactions)
3. Parts of an amino acid
4. Peptide bonds
5. The way to study amino acids: groups based on shared chemical characteristics
6. Levels of protein structure:
Primary: sequence of amino acids
Secondary: regions of regular folding due to H-bonds between amino and carboxyl groups that are close together in the polypeptide chain. Alpha helices and beta sheets. And penguins in my kitchen.
Tertiary: chemical interactions between R groups
Quaternary: interactions between 2 or more polypeptide chains
