The ''tertiary structure'' of a protein is the overall 3D structure of the protein. The protein is stabilized by outside polar hydrophilic hydrogen and ionic bond interactions, and internal hydrophobic interactions between non-polar amino acid side chains. | The ''tertiary structure'' of a protein is the overall 3D structure of the protein.

The ''quaternary structure'' of a protein is when several protein chains or subunits are packed altogether. Each of the protein chains or subunits have their own primary, secondary, and tertiary structure and are held together by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds between nonpolar side chains. | The ''quaternary structure'' of a protein is when several protein chains or subunits are packed altogether.

A space-filling view of a protein is a 3-dimensional model that gives a better picture of what the molecule would look and what the overall shape of the protein would be. | A ''space-filling view'' of a protein is a 3-dimensional model that gives a better picture of what the molecule would look and what the overall shape of the protein would be. | ||
This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes. | This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein.
