Primary Structure of Proteins | MCAT Biochemistry

This video talks about the primary structure of proteins. The primary structure of proteins refers to the linear sequence of amino acids that make up a protein chain. It is the simplest level of protein structure and is dictated by the unique sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The specific order of amino acids is determined by the genetic code encoded in the DNA. Each amino acid is linked to the next by peptide bonds, forming the backbone of the protein. The primary structure is crucial because it serves as the foundation for the higher-order structures of proteins, such as the secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. The sequence of amino acids in the primary structure ultimately determines the protein's overall shape, function, and interactions with other molecules. Any alterations or mutations in the primary structure can have significant effects on the protein's properties and functions. This video will help you learn the basics and foundational knowledge needed to ace your exams!
