I-sites 30

[Frayed alpha helix, type 3]

Given below is the representative amino acid fragments, "paradigm", for each I-sites cluster of this motif:

Paradigms are given by their PDB code, (chain number,) and the PDB residue number of the first position in the fragment.
The PDB style files of the fragments contain the neighbouring two residues for each terminal.
Backbone structures are obtained using ProteinViewer, where N-terminal is colored red and C-terminal blue.

Rough characterization of the DSSP code, the PB label, and the 5-tile code is given below.
