Hierarchical Organization of Protein StructureQ3.1 Describe the properties of an amphipathic alpha helix and identifynumbered amino acids in a dodecamer polypeptide that contribute to thechemical properties of this secondary protein structure (see theamphipathic alpha helix described in chapter 4). Where are amphipathicalpha helices found in a globular cytosolic protein?

With increasing complexity, protein structures can be arranged into four categories of hierarchies.…
