Which type of bond is not responsible in maintaining the tertiary structure of proteins?
Correct answer: D. Glycosidic
- A. Ionic
- B. Hydrogen
- C. Peptide
- D. Glycosidic
Explanation
The tertiary structure of proteins are connected by monomers of amino acid by the peptide bond.The structure is composed of hydrogen bonds, Ionic bonds and other interactions.The glycosidic bond is absent in protein structure.
