The specific sequence
of Amino Acids in a
Polypeptide.
Secondary Structure
Refers to either an α helix or
a β pleated sheet. Held
together by hydrogen bonds.
Tertiary Structure
Refers to the overall 3D shape of
the polypeptide. Held in shape by
three bonds (Hydrogen, Ionic and
Disulfride Bridge) and 1 interaction
(Hydrophillic/Hydrophobic).
