Vedclass · Answer

(B) In a polypeptide chain,the secondary structure,such as the $\alpha$-helix,is stabilized by hydrogen bonds.These hydrogen bonds form between the carbonyl oxygen $(C=O)$ of one amino acid residue and the amide hydrogen $(N-H)$ of another amino acid residue located further along the chain.This regular pattern of hydrogen bonding causes the polypeptide chain to coil into a helical shape.
