1.	Is it expected that a change in the primary, in the secondary or in the tertiary structure of a protein will produce more functional consequences?
Answer» Any change of the protein structure is relevant if it alters its biological activity. Changes in the primary protein structure is more important because they are modifications in the composition of the molecule and such composition determines all other structures of the protein.
