The alpha helix and pleated sheet are examples of?
secondary structure of a protein
Does amylase contain both an alpha helix and a beta pleated sheets?
yes
The alpha helix and beta pleated sheet represent which level of protein structure?
The alpha helix and beta sheets are found at the Secondary level of protein folding. It's when the protein is taking its shape. Secondary structure
What protein are found in plasma?
water ,minerals, proteins and disolved salt
What level of protein structure is associated the alpha helix and beta pleated sheet?
It depends on the primary sequence of amino acids as to which secondary structure is more stable. Both structures use hydrogen bonds to stabilize the structures, however in an alpha helix, these hydrogen bonds are with the peptide and in beta sheets the hydrogen bonds are between beta peptide strands. I really don't know which structure is more stable... -alpha helix seems to be a more common structure -and B sheets lose some H bonding during hair pin turns and during twists. -But an alpha helix has a dipole whereas an antiparalle beta sheet doesnt. -weighing it up i would assume an alpha helix to be more stable but that would be a guess from me.
What are the two most common secondary structures in a protein?
The two types of tertiary protein structures: globular and fibrous proteins. Globular proteins act as enzymes that catalyze chemical reactions in organisms. Fibrous proteins like collagen play structural role.
The alpha helix and pleated sheet are examples of?
secondary structure of a protein
What can form a structure such as a helix or a sheet?
A polypeptide chain, which is the primary structure of a protein, can fold into secondary structures such as an alpha-helix or a beta-sheet.
Does amylase contain both an alpha helix and a beta pleated sheets?
yes
Structure of keratin?
Alpha keratin has alpha helix structure and beta keratin has beta pleated sheet structure.
What type of protein shape is characterized by the alpha helix or a flat-pleated sheet?
secondary structure
What levels of protein folding would include shapes identified as helix and pleated sheet?
This is the secondary folding phase where hydrogen bonds between the side chains give you the alpha helix and the beta pleated sheet.
What does Alpha helix and beta pleated sheets make up?
together they make a secondary protein structure
What are helix proteins?
There are no known proteins such as helix proteins. Alpha helix is a secondary structure element found in proteins that formed by amino acids which can form helix. Other secondary structures are beta sheets and random coils.
The alpha helix and beta pleated sheet represent which level of protein structure?
The alpha helix and beta sheets are found at the Secondary level of protein folding. It's when the protein is taking its shape. Secondary structure
What is an alpha helix?
Hi, The DNA Helix is simply another name for DNA, and such name is used because DNA is in a double helix shape. The DNA is what determines who you are and therefore is found in every cell in our body. It is the genetic information of a human being and it contains genes, which are what determines our traits. For example, there are genes that control eye color, hair color, size of body...etc.
Name two types of secondary protein structure Explain the role of hydrogen bonds in maintaining secondary structure?
alpha Helix and Beta pleated sheet
