The helical structure of protein is stabilized by a. Dipeptide bonds b. Hydrogen bonds c. Ether bonds d. Peptide bonds
Option B The helical structure of protein is stabilized by hydrogen bonds. Proteins are large biological molecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. Proteins perform a vast array of functions within living organisms, including catalyzing metabolic reactions, replicating DNA, responding to stimuli, and transporting molecules from one location to another. Proteins differ from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is dictated by the nucleotide sequence of their genes, and which usually results in folding of the protein into a specific three-dimensional structure that determines its activity. A linear chain of amino acid residues is called as a polypeptide. A protein contains at least one long polypeptide.
