Question
Chapter 21, Problem 16QAP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given statement should be completed.
Concept Introduction:
The silk itself is also known as natural fiber of protein because it consists of sequence of amino acids present in a secondary structure of protein. Beta pleated sheet is present in secondary structure of silk.
Amino acids such as glycine, alanine, and serine present in specific sequence or repeating pattern to produce primary structure of protein.
