Dear Friends,I have to ask very basic question. Please provide answer with some
references.1. Whats are the values for maximum and minimum numbers of residues
present in one alpha helix and beta strand?2. Is any fixed (or with some range)
for the percent of beta turns present in protein
1) At least four to get the H-bonding..
2) No - depends on the number and arrangement of beta sheets. Protein
structures vary a great deal!
You could find the % of residues in protein structures which form helices
and beta sheets I guess but there is such huge variation that it may not be
very
