Video transcript

Hello everyone here. We have a question asking us which of the following stabilizes the tertiary structure of proteins. So, first, it's important to know what the tertiary structure is. The tertiary structure is, the three dimensional folding that globular proteins assume as a result of the interactions between side chains. So it's it's three D form. So our answer here are hydrogen bonds. That is correct. B is covalin bonds. That is correct. And see is vander Waals force of action. That is correct. So our answer here is D All of the above. Thank you for watching. Bye.
