  • E.g. identification of beta-sheet and alpha-helices?

  • FliI seems to have several short alpha-helices, an anti-parallel beta-sheet, and maybe a little beta-strand.

  • During this period, together with W. Cochran and V. Vand he worked out the general theory of X-ray diffraction by a helix, and at the same time as L. Pauling and R.B. Corey, suggested that the alpha-keratin pattern was due to alpha-helices coiled round each other.

  • For example, the ancestral E. oligarthrus isoform containing 10 beta sheets and 3 alpha-helices, is similar to that predicted for isoform

  • Moreover, phylogenetic analyses indicate that EG95 isoform evolution is convergent with regard to the number of beta-sheets and alpha-helices.

  • While the hydrophobic methionine usually stabilizes alpha-helices effectively, its oxidized form supports the structural conversion into beta-sheets.
