Question

The length of an α-helix composed of 36 amino acid residues is * 1 point A)54 Å B)10 Å C)360 Å D)27 Å

Answer 1

Answer:

The structure repeats itself every 5.4 Angstroms along the helix axis that means we say that alpha helix has a pitch of 5.4 Angstroms. Alpha helices have 3.6 amino acid per trun, that means a helix 36 amino acids long would from 10 trun

Answer 2

Answer:

The length of an α-helix composed of 36 amino acid residues is

B)10
