3 Levels f Protein rganization Primary Structure - The sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain Secondary Structure - The formation of a helices and b pleated sheets due to hydrogen bonding between the peptide backbone Tertiary Structure - Folding of helices and sheets influenced by R group bonding Quaternary Structure - The association of more than one polypeptide into a protein complex influenced by R group bonding

5 Levels f Protein rganization Primary Structure Met-Gly-Ala-Pro-is-Ile-Asp-Glu-Met-Ser-Thr-... The sequence of amino acids in the primary structure determines the folding of the molecule.

6 Protein Secondary Structure The peptide backbone has areas of positive charge and negative charge These areas can interact with one another to form hydrogen bonds The result of these hydrogen bonds are two types of structures: a helices b pleated sheets

10 Protein Secondary Structure: b Pleated Sheet

11 Protein Secondary Structure: b Pleated Sheet

12 Levels f Protein rganization Tertiary Structure Tertiary structure results from the folding of a helices and b pleated sheets Factors influencing tertiary structure include: ydrophobic interactions ydrogen bonding Disulphide bridges Ionic bonds

13 Globular and Fibrous e.g. haemoglobin 3º structure normally folds up in a ball hydrophilic R groups point outwards ydrophobic R groups point inwards soluble metabolic functions e.g. collagen 2º structure does not fold up, form fibres not surrounded by hydrophilic R groups insoluble structural functions

21 Levels f Protein rganization Quaternary Structure Quaternary structure results from the interaction of independent polypeptide chains Factors influencing quaternary structure include: ydrophobic interactions ydrogen bonding The shape and charge distribution on amino acids of associating polypeptides
