Quaternary Protein Structure

Front

2+ protein chains forming functional protein

Back

Lipid

Front

Energy-rich organic compounds, such as fats, oils, and waxes, that are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Source of long term energy storage.

Back

Monomer

Front

small chemical unit that makes up a polymer

Back

Tertiary Protein Structure

Front

3D folding pattern of a protein due to side chain interactions

Back

Polymer

Front

A long molecule consisting of many similar or identical monomers linked together.

Back

Dehydration synthesis

Front

A chemical reaction in which two molecules are bonded together with the removal of a water molecule.

Back

Methyl Group

Front

A chemical group consisting of a carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms.

Back

R-Group

Front

Used to represent one of twenty side chains found in amino acids

Back

-COOH

Front

carboxyl group

Back

Carbohydrate

Front

compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms; major source of energy for the human body

Back

Secondary protein structure

Front

coiling or folding of a polypeptide due to H-bonding between amino acids

Back

Amino Group

Front

A functional group that consists of a nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms

Back

Hydrolysis

Front

the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water.

Back

Primary Protein structure

Front

linear sequence of amino acids

Back

Phosphate Group

Front

A functional group consisting of a phosphorus atom covalently bonded to four oxygen atoms

Back

Cis-trans isomer

Front

carbons have covalent bonds to the same atoms, but these atoms differ in their spatial arrangements due to the inflexibility of double bonds
