- What amino acids are found on the exterior of the protein?
Answer: polar amino acids
- Two non-polar amino acids make what kind of interaction?
Answer: Hydrophobic interactions
- Non-covalent interactions between amino acid R groups

- What structure has a disulfide bond that holds together 2 subunits of an
enzyme?
Answer: quaternary structure
- What structure has an Ionic interactions that hold together 4 different subunits
of a protein?
Answer: quaternary structure
- What structure has an Ionic interactions that hold together 3 identical
polypeptides
Answer: quaternary structure
- non polar amino acids
Answer: hydrophobic bond, weak strength, heat disrupts the interaction
- primary structure of protein
Answer: the amino acid sequence of the polypeptide chain
- secondary structure of protein
Answer: Hydrogen bonds are involved in this level of structure and the amino and carboxyl groups (backbone) form these bonds
