Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The definition of a reverse turn. Also, the two types of reverse turn are to be specified.
Concept introduction:
A protein is a polypeptide chain where amino acids are linked with a peptide bond. It forms different structures or conformations, because of its large size.
One of the structures is known as a secondary structure, which is of two types, namely, α-helix and β-pleated sheet.
