    Building blocks and folding of proteins

    2508

    Proteins are made of amino acids hooked end-to-end like beads on a necklace. To become active, proteins must twist and fold into their final, or "native," conformation." A protein's final shape enables it to accomplish its function. Featured in The Structures of Life.
