Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for use of alpha helices in the membrane-spanning for the G-protein-coupled receptors needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction :

The structure of alpha-helix is a polypeptide chain like a coiled rod giving a spring like structure. These polypeptide chains are bonded together with hydrogen bonds. The beta strands are responsible for bonding in beta-pleated sheets where they linked in lateral manner with hydrogen bonds resulting formation of a backbone. The number of amino acids involved in beta strand or chain formation is from 3-10.
