Which of the following is true about protein folding?
A)Amino acids cluster in the primary sequence so that all the hydrophobic amino acids are near each other to facilitate folding into the hydrophobic core of the tertiary structure.
B)All known proteins have well-ordered conformations.
C)Amino acids with hydrophobic,nonpolar side chains stabilize the tertiary structure through hydrogen bonding with water molecules surrounding the proteins.
D)Elements from the secondary structure are maintained in the tertiary structure.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Elements from the secondary structure, such as alpha helices and beta sheets, contribute to the overall folding of the protein in the tertiary structure. However, the precise arrangement and orientation of these secondary structures may vary between different proteins.
