Primary structure is a sequence of amino acid joined covalently unlike hydrogen/ ionic bond, which is easily affected by heat, in 2' 3' 4' structures.

Which level of protein structure may be stabilized by covalent bonds?
Primary, tertiary and quaternary levels of protein structure.
How is tertiary protein structure dependent on primary protein structure?
The relationship between the primary and tertiary structure of a protein is the both have a sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.orThe sequence of amino acids in a primary structure determines its three-dimensional shape ( secondary and tertiary structure)
What type of bond joins monomers in a primary structure?
Peptide bonds join the monomers in a protein's primary structure.
Which levels of structural organization are lost when a protein is denatured?
The secondary and tertiary structures.
Are ionic bonds responsible for the primary structure of a protein?
Primary structure of a protein represents the sequence of the amino acids of that particular protein. The amino acids are bonded together by a bond called 'peptide bond'. The peptide bond is formed by carbonyl group of an amino acid with nitrogen group of the adjacent amino acid. Only this peptide bond is responsible for the formation of primary structure of protein. Hence the ionic bonds are not involved in the primary structures of protein.
Which level of protein structure is unaffected when a protein is denatured?
The primary structure
What is primary structure of a protein and what causes it?
Primary structure of the protein is simply its amino acid sequence. It is the sequence in which amino acids are added during protein synthesis.
What is it called when you heat a protein and ruin its structure?
Denaturation is what heating a protein and ruining its structure is called. The protein structure can also be denatured using chemicals, radiation, etc.
Is the structure of protein primary?
The primary structure of proteins is simply a peptide (chain of amino acids).
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.
Of the four protein structureswhich level is lowest level of a protein structure?
the primary structure is the lowest level
What is the level of protein structure is the amino acid sequence of the protein?
Quaternary tertiary secondary primary is the sequence.
Which level of protein structure may be stabilized by covalent bonds?
Primary, tertiary and quaternary levels of protein structure.
How is tertiary protein structure dependent on primary protein structure?
The relationship between the primary and tertiary structure of a protein is the both have a sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain.orThe sequence of amino acids in a primary structure determines its three-dimensional shape ( secondary and tertiary structure)
What are the subgroups of protein?
There are four distinct levels of protein structure. The main two are primary, amino acid, secondary structure, and quaternary structure.
What is the primairy structure of a protein?
Primary - the sequence of amino acids that make up a protein
What type of bond joins monomers in a primary structure?
Peptide bonds join the monomers in a protein's primary structure.
