Chapter 22, Problem 22-84(choose chapter or problem)
Biochemists studying the structure of collagen (a fibrous protein in connective tissue) found cross-links containing \(\alpha\), \(\beta\)-unsaturated aldehydes between protein chains. Show the structures of the side chains that react to form these crosslinks, and propose a mechanism for their formation in a weakly acidic solution.
