Part A Complete the following vocabulary exercise relating to the level of structure in proteins. Match the words In the left-hand column with the appropriate blank In the sentences In the right-hand column: Primary structure describes the alpha-helices and beta-sheets that are formed by hydrogen Secondary bonding between backbone atoms located near each other in the polypeptide chain; Tertiary structure is the sequence of amino acids in protein: Quaternary structure is the result of two or more protein subunits assembling to form larger; biologically active protein complex: structure achieved when protein folds into compact; three-dimensional shape stabilized by interactions between side-chain R groups of amino acids

Match the following level of protein structure to the appropriate description. Secondary Primary Quaternary Tertiary 1. The sequence of amino acids. 2. Polypeptide sub-structures such as the α-helix and the β-sheet formed via patterns of hydrogen bonding involving the peptide backbone. 3. The overall globular structure of a single polypeptide, formed via R group interactions and hydrophobic interactions. 4. The overall globular structure of two or more polypeptide chains bound together by non-covalent interactions and disulfide bonds.
