Proteins are long chains of amino acids. The sequence of amino acids that make up a specific protein is its primary structure. Many proteins have secondary structure that is caused by interactions between associated amino acids, causing kinks or twists in the protein change. Some have tertiary structure, which is caused by joining together of one or more chains.
