English: Functional proteins have four levels of structural organization: 1) Primary Structure : the linear structure of amino acids in the polypeptide chain 2) Secondary Structure : hydrogen bonds between peptide group chains in an alpha helix or beta 3) Tertiary Structure : three-dimensional structure of alpha helixes and beta helixes folded
This template is intended for use on protein structure pages. To insert, use {{Protein structure}}. On the primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure pages, it displays alternative versions of the image with the relevant section highlighted. Alternatively, for the non-interactive image, use [[File:Protein structure (full)-en.svg]]
This file contains additional information, probably added from the digital camera or scanner used to create or digitize it. If the file has been modified from its original state, some details may not fully reflect the modified file.
After the best-fit template is selected, the structural model of the sequence is built based on the alignment with the chosen template. Protein threading is based on two basic observations: that the number of different folds in nature is fairly small (approximately 1300); and that 90% of the new structures submitted to the PDB in the past three ...
A protein structure database is a database that is modeled around the various experimentally determined protein structures. The aim of most protein structure databases is to organize and annotate the protein structures, providing the biological community access to the experimental data in a useful way.
This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible. To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:
Protein isoform; Protein quinary structure; Template:Protein structural analysis; Protein primary structure; Protein secondary structure; Protein tertiary structure; Protein quaternary structure; Protein Structure Initiative; List of protein secondary structure prediction programs; Protein structure prediction; List of protein structure ...
The transient nature of these protein encounters complicates the study of quinary structure. Indeed, the interactions responsible for this upper level of protein organisation are weak and short-lived, and hence would not produce protein-protein complexes that could be isolated by conventional biochemical methods.
