Protein primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids in a peptide or protein. By convention, the primary structure of a protein is reported...

Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in an amino acid-chain molecule. Proteins are polymers – specifically polypeptides – formed...

tertiary structure from primary structure. Structure prediction is different from the inverse problem of protein design. Protein structure prediction...

Protein tertiary structure is the three-dimensional shape of a protein. The tertiary structure will have a single polypeptide chain "backbone" with one...

Protein quaternary structure is the fourth (and highest) classification level of protein structure. Protein quaternary structure refers to the structure...

three-dimensional structure, known as the protein's native state. This structure is determined by the amino-acid sequence or primary structure. The correct...

specific structure which enables the protein to carry out its functions. The basic form of protein structure is known as the primary structure, which is...

a protein structure database is a database that is modeled around the various experimentally determined protein structures. The aim of most protein structure...

Protein secondary structure is the local spatial conformation of the polypeptide backbone excluding the side chains. The two most common secondary structural...

denaturation is a process in which proteins or nucleic acids lose the quaternary structure, tertiary structure, and secondary structure which is present in their...

were amino acids linked by peptide bonds, although this model of protein primary structure was independently and simultaneously conceived by Emil Fischer...

responding to stimuli, providing structure to cells and organisms, and transporting molecules from one location to another. Proteins differ from one another primarily...

novo protein structure prediction refers to an algorithmic process by which protein tertiary structure is predicted from its amino acid primary sequence...

entire protein subunits. This useful distinction among scales is often expressed as a decomposition of molecular structure into four levels: primary, secondary...

users. Even though the primary goal of CASP is to help advance the methods of identifying protein three-dimensional structure from its amino acid sequence...

Quinary structure is thus the fifth level of protein complexity, additional to protein primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures. As opposed...

to its primary host receptor, CD4, and its co-receptor (mainly CCR5 or CXCR4), leading to viral entry into its target cell. As the only proteins on the...

using X-ray crystallography, the alternative method of sequencing protein primary structure may also be used instead. Porins are water-filled pores and channels...

because protein folding requires entropic cost. As a primary sequence of a polypeptide chain can form numerous conformations, native globular structure restricts...

numerous alternative theories of the protein primary structure were proposed, e.g., the colloidal hypothesis that proteins were assemblies of small molecules...

biology, an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) is a protein that lacks a fixed or ordered three-dimensional structure, typically in the absence of its...

"New tools for evaluating protein tyrosine sulfation: tyrosylprotein sulfotransferases (TPSTs) are novel targets for RAF protein kinase inhibitors". Biochemical...

encode the "structural motif" of a protein; that is a stereotypical element of the overall structure of the protein. Nevertheless, motifs need not be associated...

three-dimensional structure. Many proteins consist of several domains, and a domain may appear in a variety of different proteins. Molecular evolution...

along with the G proteins. The signaling pathways activated through a GPCR are limited by the primary sequence and tertiary structure of the GPCR itself...

oncogenic fusion protein, and is considered to be the primary oncogenic driver of chronic myelogenous leukemia. Some fusion proteins combine whole peptides...

and their structure has multiple levels. Protein structure has a four-level hierarchy. The primary structure is the sequence of amino acids that make...

finger protein's class is determined by this three-dimensional structure, but it can also be recognized based on the primary structure of the protein or the...

The Open Protein Structure Annotation Network (TOPSAN) is a wiki designed to collect, share and distribute information about protein three-dimensional...

The particular series of amino acids that form a protein is known as that protein's primary structure. This sequence is determined by the genetic makeup...
