enum Chem::Protein::SecondaryStructureType

Overview

Members are similar to simplified or reduced secondary structure classification:

• Helical (α-helix, π-helix, etc.)
• Extended (β-strand, polyproline, 2.2_7-helix, etc.)
• Coil (Bend, turn, etc.)

Defined in:

Enum Members

Coil = 0

Extended = 1

Helical = 2
