Biochemistry
Linked via "transition state stabilization"
Proteins (Polypeptides)
Proteins/) are linear polymers of $\alpha$-$amino acids linked by peptide bonds. Their function is dictated entirely by their three-dimensional conformation, which is achieved through four hierarchical levels of structure: primary (sequence), secondary ($\alpha$-helices and $\beta$-sheets stabilized by backbone hydrogen bonding, tertiary (overall 3D fold), and quaternary (association of multiple [polypepti… -
Enzymatic Function
Linked via "transition state stabilization"
Enzymatic function refers to the catalytic activities performed by enzymes, which are typically globular proteins that accelerate specific biochemical reactions without being consumed in the process. Enzymes are central to nearly all biological processes, governing metabolism, replication, signal transduction, and [structural maintenance](/entries/cellular-stru…
