What is the definition of 'alpha helix pitch'?
How are the pitch, rise, and number of amino acid residues related in an alpha helix?
What is the degree of rotation per amino acid residue in an alpha helix with 3.6 residues per turn?
Calculate the total length of an alpha helix with 60 amino acid residues and a rise of 1.5 angstroms.
How many meters are equivalent to 5.4 angstroms?
If the pitch of an alpha helix is 5.4 angstroms and the rise is 1.5 angstroms, how many amino acid residues are there per turn?
In what way does the alpha helix pitch and rise contribute to the understanding of protein secondary structure dimensions?
