Please don't provide handwritten solution ..... 

Imagine the main chain of a protein bends back on itself, so that two amino acid residues R, and R, come close to each other. Here's what R, looks like:
-CH-
H₂N
CH₂
CH₂
CH₂
NH
NH₂
O yes
O no
Could R, form a salt bridge with R, at physiological pH, if R₂ were the right kind of residue?
If you said R, could form a salt bridge with R₂, what would R₂ have to be?
0
If there's only one possibility, write its 3-letter code. If there is more than one possibility, write the
3-letter code of any of them.
