Question

Proteins contain

  1. Only L- α- amino acids
  2. Only D-amino acids
  3. DL-Amino acids
  4. Both (A) and (B)

hintHint:

Alpha amino acids

The correct answer is: Only L- α- amino acids


    • Proteins are long chains of L α-amino acids.
    • So, the correct option is a.

    What is the special type of bond that forms between two amino acids?

    • Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of one or more electrons between 2 atoms.
    • Hydrogen bonds are attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F.
