Here is the response the AI gave me: “Poly glutamic acid is a peptide composed of multiple units of the amino acid glutamic acid. At low pH, such as pH 2.4, the glutamic acid residues in the peptide are protonated and carry a positive charge. At high pH, such as pH 7.5, the glutamic acid residues are deprotonated and carry a negative charge. The formation of an alpha helix in a peptide is primarily driven by hydrogen bonding between the amide groups of the peptide backbone. At low pH, the positive charges on the glutamic acid residues can interact with the negative charges on the backbone amide groups, stabilizing the helix conformation. However, at high pH, the negative charges on the glutamic acid residues repel the negative charges on the backbone amide groups, destabilizing the alpha helix…
