Pop quiz: alpha helices are stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl group of residues i and the amide group of residue
aalyn [17]

Answer:

<em> e) Ala</em>

Explanation:

Alpha helix is a secondary structure of proteins, it is made of 3.6 aminoacids residues per turn, this structure is possible thanks to local hydrogen bonding between C=O and N-h groups. The result is a cylindrical structure with a hydrogen-bonded backbone and the outside studded with side chains.

Glycin has an -H in its side chain, this makes it a too flexible molecule, therefore it's unusual to find them in alpha-helical structures because their presence could cause the helix to deform. Large R-groups can also affect this stability, phenylalanine has a bulky aromatic side group, this discards it as a stabilizer. Serine has a hydrogen bond donor or acceptor as a side chain, due to the proximity to the main chain it competes with the main chain to form NH and CO bonds. Alanine is the most common amino acid in alpha-helix structures because it has a short and no charged R group (unlike arginine that even when it's short it has a charged R-group), this makes it flexible enough to keep the structure stabilized.

Hope you find this information useful! good luck!

Put the events underlying inflammation in the correct order: a. Recruited leukocytes phagocytize the invaders. b. Local macropha
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1)B 2)C 3)D E 4)E 5)A

Explanation:

Inflammation is the body defence system against various pathogens and include various components such as Immune cells and blood vessels. Inflammation occurs in a sequence of events.

  • when a pathogen enters the cells macrophages produce the first response by phagocytizing the foreign body.
  • The blood vessels dilated so more blood cells, oxygen and nutrients could reach at the site of pathogen and fight against it.
  • Foreign pathogen is captured at that place so it can't mobilize to other part of the body.
  • The more fighting cells are directioned at the site of infection
  • The recruited phagocytic cells phagocytize the invaders pathogen and starts its degradation.
