  • Alpha-Helix is the most abundant secondary structure of the protein.
  • This structure is shaped by hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl O of one amino acid and the amino H of another. Specifically, the C=O group in amino acid and the N-H group form a hydrogen bond.
  • The alkyl groups of the alpha-helix chain keep the alpha-helix structure intact but are not involved in the H bonds.
  • In an alpha helix, there are 3.6 amino acid residues in each winding turn.

This, the correct answer is option 2.
