Protein Structure Illustration

This illustration provides a detailed look at the intricate three-dimensional shape of a protein molecule. Depicted in a 'ribbon' style, it highlights the spiraling alpha-helical segments and connecting polypeptide regions, color-coded along its length to indicate progression. This visual helps in understanding the fundamental architecture of biological macromolecules essential for life processes.
