#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
  1. The aldehyde group of a saccharide is responsible for its reducing properties.

  2. Ketoses are not reducing sugars because they are not aldehydes.

  3. D-Glucose in predominantly in a cyclic hemiacetal form but it is a reducing sugar through the acyclic form with which the hemiacetal is in equilibrium.

  4. A methyl glucoside is not a reducing sugar.

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.
