Question

Proteins are formed by linking basic building blocks together. These building blocks are called 'amino-acids', and there are ~20 different kinds of amino-acids. Each has a characteristic structure, which you should review in your Freeman textbook. Once you've done that, put the following parts of the enzyme-forming process in order as best you can. Like any pre-lab, the purpose of this question is not to give you a hard exam but rather to guide your reading of the lab report and background materials. The second step is:

Answer 1

The question was incomplete but I managed to found it some other source. Please find that in the attached picture.

Answer:

The earliest step:

Formation of amino-acid building blocks

The second step:

Joining amino-acids into a polymer like beads on a string (this order is the 'primary structure')

The third step:

The first part of the protein folds due to side-chain and backbone interactions

The fourth step:

The final protein tertiary structure is completed with the addition and folding of the last parts of the protein.

The last of these steps:

The enzymatic function is possible due to the completed tertiary structure creating an 'active site' region of the protein.
