Concept explainers
Interpretation:
Reason for exact order of amino acid in protein structure is important is to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Many amino acids are linked together through amide bonds to form a biologically large molecule known to be proteins.
Amino
In protein the amide bond can link together with two amino acids to form a peptide bond.
Primary structure of protein is a sequence in which the amino acids linked by peptide bond in a protein.
Change in any one of the amino acid, drastically affects the protein function.
