Imagine the main chain of a protein bends back on itself, so that two amino acid residues R₁ and R₂ come close to each other. Here's what R₁ looks like: HO -CH- | CH CH3 Could R₁ form a hydrogen bond with R, at physiological pH, if R₂ were the right kind of residue? If you said R₁ could form a hydrogen bond with R₂, what would R, have to be? 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. ☐ yes no
