Out of these which of the following is true regarding the propensity of α-helix.

a. any amino acid which can take up desirable ϕ and ψ angle close to -57 and -47 will favour the formation of a α-helix

b. amino acid such a proline and glycine have lowest propensity will favour formation of α-helix.

c. if the resultant change in the value ΔΔG0 is positive then it will favour the formation of α-helix.

d. if the resultant change in the value ΔΔG0 is zero or close to zero then it will favour the formation of α-helix.
