Properties of the alpha-helix. 1  The structure repeats itself every 5.4 Angstroms along the helix axis, ie we say that the alpha-helix has a pitch of 5.4 Angstroms. Alpha-helices have 3.6 amino acid residues per turn, ie a helix 36 amino acids long would form 10 turns.
Students know large molecules (polymers), such as proteins, nucleic acids, and starch, are formed by repetitive combinations of simple subunits. Students know amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Students know the bonding characteristics of carbon that result in the formation of a large variety of structures ranging from simple ...
