Chapter 3, Problem 3.1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The effect on all three higher levels of proteins (secondary, tertiary, and quaternary) if three amino acids are missing in the primary sequence causing a condition of anemia.
Introduction: The shape and structure of a protein can be determined by four levels of the organization- primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. Primary structure may be defined as the sequence of amino acids whereas all the three higher levels of structures (secondary, tertiary, and quaternary) are produced from the interaction between amino acids residues.
