Random Coil Conformation

Random Coil Conformation is a polymer conformation characterized by a statistically disordered arrangement of monomeric units along the chain, arising from the random thermal fluctuations in the absence of stabilizing interactions, and belonging to the broader class of polymer chain conformations in which the spatial configuration lacks regular secondary structure.
