What is the difference between interchain and intrachain hydrogen bonds in the secondary structure of proteins?
Ayagamal
IntrAchain H-bonds stabalize bonds between the same polypeptide chain (alpha-helices).
IntErchain- H-bonds stablized between different polypeptide chain. (beta- structures)

Which levels of structural organization are lost when a protein is denatured?
The secondary and tertiary structures.
Name two types of secondary protein structure Explain the role of hydrogen bonds in maintaining secondary structure?

Does the secondary structure of a protein involve only the sequence of amino acids found in that protein?
While it is possible to predict likely secondary structures of a protein from its primary structure, only knowing the secondary structure, the general 3-D shape of local areas of the protein, cannot yield the primary structure.
What are the primary and secondary structures of aircraft?
Sorry, I want to know the difference between Primary, Secondary and Tertiary structure of aircraft
Is collagen a secondary or tertiary structure?
With most proteins, it has a secondary and tertiary structure.
The alpha helix and beta pleated sheet represent which level of protein structure?
The alpha helix and beta sheets are found at the Secondary level of protein folding. It's when the protein is taking its shape. Secondary structure
Differentiate the four types of protein structure?
There are four types of protein structure. These include primary structure, secondary structure, tertiary structure, and quaternary structure. Primary structure is the amino acid sequence. Secondary structure is the shape of the molecule. Tertiary structure is the interaction between groups. Quaternary structure is the interactions between protein subunits.
Is the secondary structure more polar than the linear amino acid sequence?
Protein tertiary structure is 3-D. Secondary structure is 2-D or linear. I. e. the linear a-a sequence is the secondary structure. Amino-acid monomers comprise the primary structure.
What causes the secondary structure of protein to differ in length from the primary?
The primary structure is a one or two dimensional structure, whereas the secondary structure is a three dimensional structure in which different parts of the protein molecule bend and twist due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between atoms. This makes the secondary structure shorter than the primary structure.
Why is secondary called secondary?
Proteins *have* primary, secondary, tertiary, and quarternary structures. The primary structure is simply the chain of amino acids without any other structure. Secondary structure results from folding of the chain to form rudimentary structures such as alpha helices, beta sheets and turns. Tertiary structure results from the further folding of the protein with secondary structures into different 3D shapes by interactions between different parts of the secondary structure. Quarternary structure results from different proteins with tertiary structures coming together to form a protein complex.
