👉 In molecular biology, a pseudotetramer is a type of structure found in certain types of proteins. These structures consist of two identical tetrameric subunits, but have some structural differences from each other. For example, a protein can have three copies of the same amino acid sequence, but with different side chains (such as a single hydrophobic residue or a double hydrophilic residue) in its side chain. The term "pseudotetramerous" refers to this structure
