The 11ea8d43_ab6a_5867_b445_b596c5a71779_TB6697_11_TB6697_11 and 11ea8d43_ab6a_7f78_b445_358bbf08c39c_TB6697_11_TB6697_11Angles refer to the torsion angles on either side of the 11ea8d43_ab6a_7f79_b445_6575485583aa_TB6697_11_TB6697_11-carbon, which is the central carbon of the peptide bond. These angles determine the overall shape of the protein backbone and are important for protein folding and function. The other options, flatness of the peptide bond, angles of each amino acid side chain, and peptide bond plane angle, are not directly related to these specific angles.
