Protein Structure
Primary
structure: sequence of amino acids
Secondary
structure: result of hydrogen bonds between polypeptide
Tertiary
: overall shape resulting from interactions
between side chains + amino acids
Quaternary
: protein having 2+ polypeptide chains
Enzymes
Regulate metabolism by acting as catalysts
