Few Notes:

Polypeptides are polymers built from the same set of 20 amino acids

A protein consists of one or more polypeptides

Amino acids are organic molecules with carboxyl and amino groups
Amino acids differ in their properties due to differing side chains, called R groups
Amino acids are linked by peptide bonds
A polypeptide is a polymer of amino acids
Polypeptides range in length from a few to more than a thousand monomers 
Each polypeptide has a unique linear sequence of amino acids
A functional protein consists of one or more polypeptides twisted, folded, and coiled into a unique shape
The sequence of amino acids determines a protein’s three-dimensional structure
A protein’s structure determines its function

Four Levels of Protein Structure:
The primary structure of a protein is its unique sequence of amino acids
Secondary structure, found in most proteins, consists of coils and folds in the polypeptide chain
Tertiary structure is determined by interactions among various side chains (R groups)
Quaternary structure results when a protein consists of multiple polypeptide chains

Primary structure, the sequence of amino acids in a protein, is like the order of letters in a long word 
05_21aProteinStructure-UPrimary structure is determined by inherited genetic information


The coils and folds of secondary structure result from hydrogen bonds between repeating constituents of the polypeptide backbone

Typical secondary structures are a coil called an α helix and a folded structure called a β pleated sheet

05_21cProteinStructure-U


Tertiary structure is determined by interactions between R groups, rather than interactions between backbone constituents

These interactions between R groups include hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, hydrophobic interactions, and van der Waals interactions

Strong covalent bonds called disulfide bridges may reinforce the protein’s structure

05_21eProteinStructure-U


Quaternary structure results when two or more polypeptide chains form one macromolecule

Collagen is a fibrous protein consisting of three polypeptides coiled like a rope

Hemoglobin is a globular protein consisting of four polypeptides: two alpha and two beta chains
