Question

You disrupt all hydrogen bonds in a protein. what level of structure will be preserved? primary structure secondary structure tertiary structure quaternary structure

Answer 1

The protein structures can be classified into four levels, namely the primary structure, secondary structure, tertiary structure, and quaternary structure. The primary structure is the simplest  of all the structures. When all the hydrogen bonds are disrupted, the secondary, tertiary and the quaternary structures gets disrupted, which leads the protein to the most simplest structural form, that is the primary structure. In this structure, the a carbon atom is bonded to hydrogen atom, carboxyl group, amino group, and an 'R' group.
