Nucleus
An amino acid chain cannot perform a function until it has been folded into its functional shape.
True
False
Protein folding and shaping is due to the interactions and bonds that occur between the different amino acids.
True
False

folding into its final shape
moving to the nucleus
moving through the plasma membrane
