Question

Glycine (C2H5NO2) is added to a growing peptide chain containing methionine (C5H11NO2S) and alanine (C3H7NO2). Which of the following peptide chain orientations best displays the growing chain and peptide bond between the amino acids?

Answer 1

Beta sheets?

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't have picture to answer it but based on my understanding, glycines are very flexible thus they are uncommon in alpha helix (proline are rigid and kink stuff thus they are uncommon in right handed alpha helix).

Therefore, beta sheets should be the best orientiation.
