The register shift rules for βαβ-motifs for de novo protein design.

A wide range of de novo design of αβ-proteins has been achieved based on the design rules, which describe secondary structure lengths and loop torsion patterns favorable for design target topologies. This paper proposes design rules for register shifts in βαβ-motifs, which have not been reported pre...

description A wide range of de novo design of αβ-proteins has been achieved based on the design rules, which describe secondary structure lengths and loop torsion patterns favorable for design target topologies.
