Question

How many amino acid residues are theye in per tum of a-helix ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Geometry and hydrogen bonding

The amino acids in an α-helix are arranged in a right-handed helical structure where each amino acid residue corresponds to a 100° turn in the helix (i.e., the helix has 3.6 residues per turn), and a translation of 1.5 Å (0.15 nm) along the helical axis.
