Question

The correct statement about peptides and proteins is

Options

A.In $\beta$-pleated sheet structures, peptide chains are held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonds
B.In $\alpha$-helices, the polypeptide chain is twisted into a left-handed screw (helix) through intramolecular hydrogen bonds
C.Tertiary structure of proteins has two or more polypeptide subunits
D.Only the proteins having a quaternary structure are biologically active

Solution
