Summary Proteins in nature are a string of residues, each of which is one of the 20 amino acids. Amino acids all have a backbone made of atoms N-C α -CO in a conformation characterized by the torsion angles,, and The remaining atoms form side-chains whose conformations are characterized by their torsion angles. Side-chains can be hydrophobic, polar or charged.
