Interchenar

Schematic presentation of two (interchenar) disulfide bridges between peptide chains of two proteins.

In chemistry and biochemistry, the term interchenar describes the structural aspect that a bridge bond (i.e. a bond that does not link consecutive monomers with one another in a different way than the one on which the polymerization reaction is based, e.g. a disulfide bridge , a hydrogen bridge , etc.) . Ä.) is located between two different polymer chains ; the opposite is intrachenar .
