Secondary structure of proteins, artwork
Secondary structure of proteins, computer artwork. The secondary structure is the shape taken by the strands of proteins, which are biological polymers of amino acids. The sequence of the amino acids helps to determine the secondary structure. The most common structural elements are the alpha helices (spirals) and beta sheet regions (parallel arrows). The biochemical function of a protein is largely dependent on its large scale structure

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate secondary structure of proteins through a mesmerizing computer artwork. Proteins, being biological polymers composed of amino acids, adopt various shapes known as secondary structures. The sequence of these amino acids plays a crucial role in determining the protein's secondary structure. In this artwork, we can observe two predominant structural elements: alpha helices and beta sheet regions. The alpha helices are depicted as elegant spirals, while the beta sheets are represented by parallel arrows. These structural elements contribute significantly to a protein's large-scale organization, which ultimately determines its biochemical function. The multi-colored composition adds vibrancy to this scientific illustration, highlighting the complexity and diversity found within proteins. It serves as a visual representation of how different compounds come together to form molecules with distinct functions in biology and chemistry. Through this stunning molecular model, Science Photo Library invites us into the fascinating world of biochemistry and biology. It reminds us that proteins play an essential role in countless biological processes and serve as building blocks for life itself.
