Definitions |
The change in structure whereby a polypeptide assumes its functional shape or conformation. This is a process that occurs during either protein biosynthesis or protein reconstitution. Polypeptide chains assume their correct three-dimensional conformation through discrete intermediate (primary, secondary, and tertiary) structures prior to the development final quaternary structure. |
