Scientific Illustration of Protein Structure

Observe the detailed three-dimensional architecture of a protein, presented using a rainbow color gradient. The progression from the blue N-terminus to the red C-terminus highlights the sequential arrangement of its components. Distinct structural features, such as the helical segments, depicted as coils, and the flattened arrow-like strands representing beta-sheets, showcase the sophisticated folding necessary for biological function.
