MCQ
Secondary structure of a protein refers to
  • A
    Mainly denatured proteins and structures of prosthetic groups
  • B
    Three dimensional structure, specially the bond between amino acid residues that are distant from each other in the polypeptide chain
  • C
    Linear sequence of amino acid residues in the polypeptide chain
  • Regular folding patterns of continuous portions of the polypeptide chain

Answer

Correct option: D.
Regular folding patterns of continuous portions of the polypeptide chain
d
Secondary structure, refers to regular l folded structures that form within a polypeptide due to interactions between atoms of the backbone. Both structures are held in shape by hydrogen bonds, which form between the carbonyl O of one amino acid and the amino H of another.
