Most of the biological activities of proteins are due to:
Options
- APrimary configuration
- BSecondary configuration
- CTertiary configuration
- DMore than one option is correct
Correct answer
C. Tertiary configuration
Step-by-step solution
Primary proteins are linear cahins of amino acids, in secondary proteins coiling or folding occurs. In tertiary proteins complex coiling and folding occurs which makes the structure more stable. Most enzymatic proteins have tertiary structure. In quaternary structures more than 2 polypeptide are coiled together.
