Chapter 18, Problem 6MCP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The length of the twenty amino acids long α-helical polypeptide has to be calculated. Also, the length of a region of the antiparallel β-pleated sheet of forty amino acid long has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The repeated distance of a α-helix is 5.4 Ao, this is also known as pitch of the α-helix. Also, the number of amino acids per turn in α-helix is 3.6.

The distance between two adjacent amino acid in β-pleated sheet is 3.5 Ao.
