Proteins are made up of amino acids, which are linked together by peptide bonds. The number of bonds in a protein structure can vary depending on the amino acid sequence and the folding pattern of the protein. However, the main type of bond in a protein structure is the peptide bond.

What are the structure levels of proteins?
1st level, 2nd level, Tertiary, and Quaternary. The first level is just the different protein groups forming peptide bonds to create a polypeptide The second level consists of hydrogen bonds between the H and the O molecules in the proteins forming pleated and helical shapes The Tertiary structure is the interactions of different R groups binding to each other (many different types of bonds happen between the R groups) The Quaternary structure is many polypeptides interacting with each other
How is protein made in a cell?
Primary structure: Protein synthesis makes polypeptide chain with the process of translation and transcription. Amino acid sequences are attached by peptide bonds.Secondary structure: Hydrogen bonds attract one amino acids to one another, resulting in a twisting and folding of neighboring amino acids. These are all attached by hydrogen bonds. It may form an alpha helix, which is a twisted form, and/or Beta pleated sheet which is the folded form.Tertiary structure: Three dimensional shape begin to form from the polypeptide chain. This is perhaps the most important structure. It may allow amino acids at opposite ends to be close to each other to allow binding of specific substrate. Covalent bonds from disulfide bridges, as well as hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and hydrophobic interactions are all present. Many proteins are functional at this point. Some, like hemoglobin, needs further configuration to become a functional protein.Quaternary structure: In the quaternary structure, two or more polypeptide chains in the tertiary structure binds to each other, which forms a functional protein.
Is enzyme organic or inorganic?
An enzyme is a protein and has many carbon hydrogen bonds, so it is an organic molecule.
What is a difference in the structure of proteins and polysaccharides?
Polysaccharides are essentially many carbon sugar "rings" linked together. They are carbohydrates, and our bodies break them down into monosaccharides (single "rings") to gain energy. To provide energy is their main function. In contrast, a peptide bond is formed between two amino acids via dehydration synthesis. Amino acids are the monomers for proteins within the body, who function in part to catalyze reactions and carry out other directions of DNA. Many peptide bonded amino acids = a polypeptide. The most basic difference would be that polypeptides are proteins, where as polysaccharides are carbohydrates.

How many disulfide bonds does insulin have?
Insulin contains three disulfide bonds. These bonds stabilize the protein structure of insulin, which is crucial for its biological activity in regulating blood sugar levels.
Disulfide bonds may be part of?
Disulfide bonds between cysteine amino acids in a peptide chain are critically in stabilizing preferred secondary and tertiary structures. Many enzyme activities rely on specific shapes that are stabilized by these disulfide bonds.
What kind of molecule is a enzyme?
Many enzymes consist of a protein and a non-protein (called the cofactor). The proteins in enzymes are usually globular. This is the tertiary structure of a protein. These globular proteins include enzymes and immunoglobins. The structures are held in place by hydrogen bonds, disulfide bridges and ionic bonds.
How many bonds are present in CH2Br2?
There are 7 bonds present in CH2Br2: 2 carbon-hydrogen bonds, 2 carbon-bromine bonds, and 3 carbon-carbon bonds.
What are the three major chemical forces bonds that stabilize a protein's native state?
I would start with the covalent disulphide bod between two sulfurs that is the strongest bond in any protein. Then there are many hydrogen bonds, not strong individually, but so many of them make for over strength. Probably hydrophobic and hydrophillic interactions bring up the rear in this listing of bonds in proteins.
How many bonds can sulfur form in a Lewis structure?
Sulfur can form a maximum of six bonds in a Lewis structure.
Which element is NOT characteristic of the primary structure of proteins?
The primary structure of proteins is characterized by the linear sequence of amino acids. Therefore, the presence or absence of specific chemical bonds (like disulfide bonds) is not a defining feature of the primary structure.
How many covalent bonds do Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen and Hydrogen form in a protein?
Carbon will form four covalent bonds, nitrogen will form three covalent bonds, oxygen will form two covalent bonds, and hydrogen will form one covalent bond. Click on the related link to see a diagram showing the structure of an amino acid.
How many double bonds are present in the best resonance structure of the phosphate ion?
The best resonance structure of the phosphate ion has one double bond and three single bonds. The double bond is between the central phosphorus atom and one of the oxygen atoms.
How many bonds are present in NHCL2?
There are a total of 6 bonds present in NHCl2. This includes the two N-H bonds, two N-Cl bonds, and two Cl-Cl bonds.
Components of protein?
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.
