  2. Protein tertiary structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_tertiary_structure

    Protein tertiary structure is the three-dimensional shape of a protein. The tertiary structure will have a single polypeptide chain "backbone" with one or more protein secondary structures, the protein domains. Amino acid side chains and the backbone may interact and bond in a number of ways. The interactions and bonds of side chains within a ...

  3. Protein structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_structure

    Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in an amino acid-chain molecule. Proteins are polymers – specifically polypeptides – formed from sequences of amino acids, which are the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue, which indicates a

  4. Protein structure prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_structure_prediction

    Constituent amino-acids can be analyzed to predict secondary, tertiary and quaternary protein structure. Protein structure prediction is the inference of the three-dimensional structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence—that is, the prediction of its secondary and tertiary structure from primary structure.

  5. De novo protein structure prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_novo_protein_structure...

    In computational biology, de novo protein structure prediction refers to an algorithmic process by which protein tertiary structure is predicted from its amino acid primary sequence. The problem itself has occupied leading scientists for decades while still remaining unsolved.

  6. C15orf61 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C15orf61

    The protein encoded by c15orf61 is 157 amino acids long. [8] The theoretical molecular weight is 18.1kDa and the predicted isoelectric point is 9.9. [9] The isoelectric point of c15orf61 is higher than the average human protein. [10] Illustration of protein encoded by c15orf61, including the signal peptide and transmembrane region. [11]

  7. Biomolecular structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomolecular_structure

    Biomolecular structure prediction is the prediction of the three-dimensional structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence, or of a nucleic acid from its nucleobase (base) sequence. In other words, it is the prediction of secondary and tertiary structure from its primary structure.

  8. Protein contact map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_contact_map

    HB plot offers a simple way of analyzing protein secondary structure and tertiary structure. Hydrogen bonds stabilizing secondary structural elements ( secondary hydrogen bonds ) and those formed between distant amino acid residues - defined as tertiary hydrogen bonds - can be easily distinguished in HB plot, thus, amino acid residues involved ...

  9. Amino acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amino_acid

    Structure of a typical L-alpha-amino acid in the "neutral" form. Amino acids are organic compounds that contain both amino and carboxylic acid functional groups. [1] Although over 500 amino acids exist in nature, by far the most important are the 22 α-amino acids incorporated into proteins. [2] Only these 22 appear in the genetic code of life ...
