What does Alpha helix and beta pleated sheets make up?
together they make a secondary protein structure
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.
Can carbohydrates contain pleated sheets and helices?
No , these are present in proteins .
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
Does amylase contain both an alpha helix and a beta pleated sheets?
yes
Betta pleated sheets are characterized by?
folds stabilized by hydrogen bonds between segments of the polypeptide backbone.
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.
What gives spider dragline silk its strength?
the H-bonds form a backbone of β-pleated sheets which gives the silk its strength.
What is distinctive about primary vs secondary protein structure?
The primary structure of a protein is just an amino acid string; a polypeptide. The secondary structure of a protein is the hydrogen bonding of the side chains that form the polypeptide chain into alpha helices and beta sheets.
What is a silk protein?
Protein found in silk,a strong,soft,lustrous fibre made of fibroin, a structural protein consisting almost entirely of stacked antiparellel beta plated sheets.
What is it called when protein unfolds?
The process of a protein unfolding is called denaturation. During denaturation normal alpha-helix and beta sheets are disrupted causing the protein to uncoil and become misshaped
What does a protein's alpha helices and beta sheets fold together to create?
The question should be "what do alpha helices and beta sheets create?" They form the tertiary structure of proteins.
