It is called the tertiary structure of a protein. 'Clumping' two or more tertiary protein structures together yields the quaternary form, or shape.
tertiary structure
It involves three dimentional vector edition.
Ultimately, the unique sequence of amino acids making up the primary polypeptide chain. The R group interactions give the protein it's tertiary shape.
A protein's shape is very important for its function. For example, enzymes react with substrates at an active site. This is very specific and if the shape changes, it will not react at efficiently (or at all).
The sequence of amino acids affects protein function. The three-dimensional structure of a protein determines its function. The three-dimensional structure of a protein is determined by the sequence of its amino acids.
It tells us about the three dimensional structure of the protein in its folded configuration.
Double Helix
a planet
A shape that it is 3D and has sides, corners and faces
The order of amino acids for each protein determines its final three-dimensional shape
A three-dimentional shape at all points equidistant from a straight line.
A shape or figure is said to be 3-dimensional if it is represented in LENGTH, WIDTH AND HEIGHT. It is a kind of isometric drawing.
A sphere is a three dimentional shape, a circle is a two dimentional shape. You can't pick up a circle, it can only be drawn. In differential geometry, a one dimensional sphere is a point, a two dimensional sphere is a circle and a three dimensional sphere is what we call a "sphere", there is no limit to the number of dimensions a sphere can have.
Protein structure is dictated by the sequence of amino acids that make up the protein. The charge and polarity of the amino acid side chains decide the final confirmation (or three dimensional shape) of the protein.
no. the definition of polygon is two dimentional and a prism is three dimentional
edges are the intersection of faces in a three dimentional figure:The cube has 12 edges.

The amino acid gives the protein it's 3-dimensional shape
