#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology

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.
