2. Amino Acids a.) Which amino acid is this: A substitution on the methyl group of this amino acid with a hydroxyl group yields the amino acid Ser and substitution with a phenyl group yields the amino acid Phe. b.)

Understand alpha helices and beta pleated sheets Question The coiling of an a-helix is maintained in position by which of the following bonds? Select the correct answer below: hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atom in the carbonyl group in one amino acid and the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group in an R-group of another amino acid that is four amino acids farther along the chain O hydrogen bonds between the oxygen atom in the carbonyl group in one amino...
Biochemistry 1: Two amino acids have chiral carbons in their side chains (R group). Identify these amino acids and draw the structures of all of the possible stereoisomers of these amino acids. The amino acid with a hydroxyl group is found in proteins with the (2S, 3R) configuration and the other amino acid is found in proteins with the (2S, 3S) configuration. Circle the structures in your answer above that correspond to these isomers.
