Pregunta:
Structure of collagen, why is it water resistant, and what bonds make it up
Autor: Pakin PuranandaRespuesta:
Primary, secondary and quaternary structure. 3 secondary structures twist together to form a triple helix. Every third amino acid is glycine (smallest amino acid) to make the structure tight. There is no tertiary structure so that collagen does not dissolve in water. Weak hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds. Staggered ends.
