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!

What pituitary hormone works at the level of the collecting duct to either increase or decrease absorption of water in order to
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
Antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) works at the level of the collecting duct to either increase absorption of water in order to maintain plasma volume and thus blood pressure. <span>This hormone is synthesized by special nerve cells of the hypothalamus and then transported to the pituitary gland where the hormone is released from vesicles into the bloodstream. Vasopressin is released in response to extracellular fluid hypertonicity. His functions are to reabsorb water back into the circulation, from the filtrate in the kidney tubules of the nephrons and to constricts arterioles (raises arterial blood pressure). </span>
