    22. Consider an alpha helix with sequence VLADWMAVELA, and consider the hydrogen bonds that are required in order to form the alpha helix. A. Fill in all of the hydrogen bonds that must form between a given residue's backbone N-H backbone C-O, or R group, indicating what the hydrogen bonding partner for each will be. For example, the C-O of V1 is a hydrogen bond acceptor of the W5 N-H hydrogen bond donor, reflected in the appropriate squares under V1...
