Early Origin-of-Life Experiments Could the first steps of chemical evolution have
occurred on ancient Earth? To find out, Stanley Miller combined methane (CH4),
ammonia (NH3), and hydrogen (H2) in a closed system with water, and applied heat and electricity as an energy source.
The products included hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and formaldehyde (H2CO), important precursors for more-complex organic molecules and amino acids.
In more recent experiments, amino acids and other organic molecules have been found to form easily under these conditions.

The Nature of Side Chains The 21 amino acids differ only in the variable side chain
or R-group attached to the central carbon
R-groups differ in their size, shape, reactivity, and interactions with water. (1) Nonpolar R-groups: Do not form hydrogen bonds; coalesce in water(2) Polar R-groups: Form hydrogen bonds; readily dissolve in water
Amino acids with hydroxyl, amino, carboxyl, or sulfhydryl functional groups in their side chains are more chemically reactive than those with side chains composed of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.

Primary Structure
A protein’s primary structure is its unique sequence of amino acids.
Because the amino acid R-groups affect a polypeptide’s properties and function, just a single amino acid change can radically alter protein function.

Secondary Structure
Secondary structure results in part from hydrogen bonding between the carboxyl oxygen of one amino acid residue and the amino hydrogen of another. A polypeptide must bend to allow this hydrogen bonding—thus, -helices or -pleated sheets are formed.
Secondary structure depends on the primary structure—some amino acids are more likely to be involved in α-helices; while others, in β-pleated sheets.
Secondary Structure increases stability by way of the large number of hydrogen bonds.

Tertiary Structure
The tertiary structure of a polypeptide results from interactions between R-groups or between R-groups and the peptide backbone. These contacts cause the backbone to bend and fold, and contribute to the 3D shape of the polypeptide.
R-group interactions include hydrogen bonds, van der Waals interactions, covalent disulfide bonds, and ionic bonds.
Hydrogen bonds can form between hydrogen atoms and the carboxyl group in the peptide-bonded backbone, and between hydrogen atoms and atoms with partial negative charges in side chains.

Tertiary Structures of Proteins
Tertiary structures are diverse.
A tertiary structure composed mostly of -helices
A tertiary structure composed mostly of -pleated sheets
A tertiary structure rich in disulfide bonds

Van der Waals Interactions van der Waals interactions are electrical
interactions between hydrophobic side chains. Although these interactions are weak, the large number of van der Waals interactions in a polypeptide significantly increases stability.
Covalent disulfide bonds form between sulfur-containing R-groups.
Ionic bonds form between groups that have full and opposing charges.

Quaternary Structure
Some proteins contain several distinct polypeptide subunits that interact to form a single structure; the bonding of two or more subunits produces quaternary structure.
The combined effects of primary, secondary, tertiary, and sometimes quaternary structure allow for amazing diversity in protein form and function.
