Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The validation of the given statement concerning the secondary protein structure has to be stated.
Concept introduction: The arrangement of the portion of protein backbone in space gives the secondary protein structure. There are two types of secondary structure, the alpha helix and the beta pleated. In both alpha helix and beta pleated, interactions that exist are hydrogen bonding.

- Once cooked, egg whites remain in a solid form. However, egg whites that are beaten to form meringue will partially change back to a jellylike form if allowed to stand for a while. Explain these behaviors using the concept of reversible protein denaturation.arrow_forwardDescribe what is meant by (a) the primary structure of a protein. (b) the secondary structure of a protein. (c) the tertiary structure of a protein.arrow_forwardWhy is cooked protein more easily digested than uncooked protein?arrow_forward
