Secondary structure :
O,H and N interactions :
form hydrogen bonds -> Alpha helix or Beta pleated sheet
Tertiary Structure Folding of :
a protein into its final shape due to R
group interactions
Hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions bonds

lonic
Hydrogen bonds Disulfide bonds
- -
Quaternary structure Tertiary interactions :
between different subunits
Globular proteins Compact Spherical proteins formed
water Soluble , by hydrophobic interactions

Haemoglobin :
Quaternary globular conjugated protein with two a and two B subunits
↳ iron 2+ binds with
reversibly Oxygen
·
Catalase :
Quaternary protein with 4 haem
prosthetic groups -> breaks down
hydrogen peroxide
Fibrous Proteins :
long insoluble molecules formed from small repetitive hydrophobic, ,
