AI Generated Solution

To answer the question regarding the two common secondary structures of proteins, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Protein Structure**: Proteins have four levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. The secondary structure refers to the local folded structures that form within a protein due to interactions between the backbone atoms. 2. **Identifying Common Secondary Structures**: The two most common types of secondary structures in proteins are: - **Alpha Helix**: This structure resembles a coiled spring and is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the carbonyl oxygen of one amino acid and the hydrogen of another amino acid four residues down the chain. ...
