The two peptides, whose amino acid sequences are shown below, form an anti-parallel two-stranded beta sheet as part of a larger protein structure. Peptide A: (N-term)-Val-Cys-Ile-Tyr-Ala-Thr Peptide B: (N-term)-Phe-Thr-Tyr-Leu-Glu-Ile Which amino acid residue (side chain) in peptide A would be able to make van der Waals bonds with the Thr side chain (shown in bold) in peptide B?
