- order that amino acids appear on a chain
primary structure
42
New cards
- hydrogen bonds between parts of backbone - creates pleated sheets or helix - carboxyl groups attract to amino groups on diffrent parts of chain
secondary structure
43
New cards
- attraction between the side chains - SH side groups attract eachother to form disulfhyde bonds - np groups attract to p groups
tertiary structure
44
New cards
