A new clustering and nomenclature for beta turns derived from high-resolution protein structures.

Protein loops connect regular secondary structures and contain 4-residue beta turns which represent 63% of the residues in loops. The commonly used classification of beta turns (Type I, I', II, II', VIa1, VIa2, VIb, and VIII) was developed in the 1970s and 1980s from analysis of a small nu...
