Secondary Structure

The level of protein structure describing the regular local structures formed by hydrogen bonds between the backbone amide and carboxyl groups, such as alpha-helices and beta-sheets.

Hydrophilic End

The part of a molecule that is attracted to water and can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, often found in compounds like detergents.

Phospholipids

A group of fats that play a crucial role in the structure of all cellular membranes due to their ability to create double-layered lipid barriers.
