Expert Solution
Step 1

α helix is a secondary conformation of proteins. The amino acids which are joined together through peptide bonds are twisted in a right handed manner to form an α helix. The repeating units of amino acids are arranged in a distance of 5.4 A0 to form the turns of the α helix. α helix is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the amino acids at specific positions.
