Answer:
Primary structure consists of amino acids joined by peptide bonds. Peptide bonds are between the alpha-carboxyl of one amino acid, and the alpha-amine of the next amino acid.
Important types of bonds involved in protein structure and conformation are Peptide bonds, Ionic bonds, Disulfide bonds, Hydrogen bonds and Hydrophobic Interactions. The current post describes the importance of each of these bonds and their role in the functional conformation of the protein.
