^ Tertiary structure is best described as the overall geometric shape of the protein.- Protein - BBWiki 2 February 2010 16:52 UTC bbwiki.tamu.edu [Source type: Academic]
^ Secondary structures are locally defined, meaning that there can be many different secondary motifs present in one single protein molecule Tertiary structure: the overall shape of a single protein molecule; the spatial relationship of the secondary structural motifs to one another Quaternary structure: the shape or structure that results from the union of more than one protein molecule, usually called subunit proteins subunits in this context, which function as part of the larger assembly or protein complex.
.^ The tertiary structure is held together primarily by hydrophobic interactions but hydrogen bonds, ionic interactions, and disulfide bonds are usually involved too.
^ Both of these structures describe hydrogen bond interactions between amino acids in the protein.- Protein - BBWiki 2 February 2010 16:52 UTC bbwiki.tamu.edu [Source type: Academic]

.^ In more formal terms, this is the prediction of protein tertiary structure from primary structure.
^ Protein Stability To be biologically active, proteins must adopt specific folded three-dimensional, tertiary structures.
The Tertiary structure is what controls the basic function of the protein.
Quaternary structure: the structure formed by several protein molecules (polypeptide chains), usually called protein subunits in this context, which function as a single protein complex.
Proteins are not entirely rigid molecules.
.^ In addition to these levels of structure, proteins may shift between several similar structures in performing of their biological function.

^ A change in the tertiary and/or quaternary conformation of a protein results in a subsequent change in the function of the protein; this is highly significant as many proteins are in fact enzymes possessing active sites with extreme sensitivity to the substrate .- Protein - BBWiki 2 February 2010 16:52 UTC bbwiki.tamu.edu [Source type: Academic]
