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.

Proline and glycine both disturb the symmetry of α-helix which of the following are true regarding to these two amino acids
a) proline changes the orientation of hetropolymeric α-helix hence proline can be placed only as 1st amino acid residue near to C-terminus 
b) proline changes the orientation of polymeric α-helix hence proline can be placed only as 1st amino acid residue near to N-terminus
c) glycine disrupts the heteropolymeric α-helix by changing the helicity.
d) homopolymer of proline and glycine can form stable helix.
