    \[\alpha \]- helical model of protein was proposed by

    A)  Pauling and Corey          

    B)  Stanley

    C)  Webster                                            

    D)  Robert Brown

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     Pauling and Corey gave a-helix structure of protein. In this structure, the polypeptide backbone is tightly bound around an imaginary axis drawn longitudinally the middle of the helix and the R groups of amino acids residue protrude outward from the helical bone. Generally, about 1/4 of all amino acid residues in polypetide are found in a-helix. Stanley is known as ?Father of Virology? (study of virus). Robert Brown gave theory of movement (Brownian movement), also gave the term nucleus.
