Question

Quaternary structure is achieved when a protein folds into a compact, three-dimensional shape stabilized by interactions between side-chain R groups of amino acids.True or False.

Answer 1

Answer:

False: Quaternary structure is achieved when multiple polypeptide chains in protein come together.

Explanation:

There are four levels of protein structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and Quaternary structure.

Tertiary structure is a protein structure, which is achieved when a protein folds into a compact, three-dimensional shape stabilized by interactions between side-chain R groups of amino acids.

However, Quaternary structure is achieved when multiple polypeptide chains in protein come together.
