Step 1
Basic properties of alpha helix
- 3.6 amino acid residues are present in 1 turn
- Rise per residue 1.5 angstrom
- Alpha helix is generally stabalized by hydrogen bond between carbonyl oxygen and hydrogen of amino group with every 4th amino acid residue
As far as I can see and interpret 6 amino acids are present on right to alpha helix.
