We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here. During the move, Proteopedia will be read only for a short time.

OUTLINE

Tertiary Structure


   Tertiary structure of protein is characterized by the “global” folding of a polypeptide chain [1] and has two domains in refined atomic model of glutamine synthetase from Salmonella typhimurium. Hydrophobic interaction is a major driving force determining the most tertiary structure of the proteins. [2] Hydrogen bonding <insert wiki showing the H.B> is crucial in stabilizing the tertiary structure as well. [3] Also, disulfide bonds <insert wiki showing the disulfide bonds of cysteine> between cysteine residues stabilize the tertiary structure. [4]
   Glutamine synthetase from Salmonella has twenty three helix-helix interactions and is four different types of interactions. [5] Hydrophobic/polar <hydrophobic/polar wiki> (put color) and hydrophilic <hydrophilic wiki>(put color) region of glutamine are combined together to fold proteins.
