What moieties within oligopeptide are those mainly responsible for the formation of an alpha-helix? Name the process that leads to the unfolding of the alpha helix to yield a random coil. State and justify, for oligopeptide, which amino acid side chains will be involved in: hydrophilic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, disulphide bridges and salt bridges.
