Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
The main secondary structure feature is alpha helix, beta sheets, or both for collagen.
Introduction:
Protein contains four structures; primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. Secondary structure contains alpha helix and beta sheets, combined alpha and beta sheets make secondary structure and they are held together by hydrogen bond.
b.
To determine:
The main secondary structure feature is alpha helix, beta sheets, or both for alpha keratin.
Introduction:
Protein contains four structures; primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. Secondary structure contains alpha helix and beta sheets, combined alpha and beta sheets make secondary structure and they are held together by hydrogen bond.
c.
To determine:
The main secondary structure feature is alpha helix, beta sheets, or both for hemoglobin.
Introduction:
Protein contains four structures; primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. Secondary structure contains alpha helix and beta sheets, combined alpha and beta sheets make secondary structure and they are held together by hydrogen bond.
d.
To determine:
The main secondary structure feature is alpha helix, beta sheets, or both for immunoglobulin.
Introduction:
Protein contains four structures; primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. Secondary structure contains alpha helix and beta sheets, combined alpha and beta sheets make secondary structure and they are held together by hydrogen bond.
e.
To determine:
The main secondary structure feature is alpha helix, beta sheets, or both for hexokinase.
Introduction:
Protein contains four structures; primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures. Secondary structure contains alpha helix and beta sheets, combined alpha and beta sheets make secondary structure and they are held together by hydrogen bond.
