The Dictionary of Protein Secondary Structure, in short DSSP, is commonly used to describe the protein secondary structure with single letter codes. The secondary structure is assigned based on hydrogen bonding patterns as those initially proposed by Pauling et al. in 1951 (before any protein structure had ever been experimentally determined).
In power supply design, a bridge circuit or bridge rectifier is an arrangement of diodes or similar devices used to rectify an electric current, i.e. to convert it from an unknown or alternating polarity to a direct current of known polarity. In some motor controllers, an H-bridge is used to control the direction the motor turns.
The main chain–main chain hydrogen bond is replaced by a side chain–main chain hydrogen bond. 3D computer superimposition shows that, in proteins, they occur [12] as one of the same four types that beta turns do, except that their relative frequency of occurrence differs: type II’ is the most common, followed by types I, II and I’.
As stated above, a chair flip is a ring inversion specifically of cyclohexane (and its derivatives) from one chair conformer to another, often to reduce steric strain.The term, "flip" is misleading, because the direction of each carbon remains the same; what changes is the orientation.
In coordination chemistry, a bridging ligand is a ligand that connects two or more atoms, usually metal ions. [1] The ligand may be atomic or polyatomic. Virtually all complex organic compounds can serve as bridging ligands, so the term is usually restricted to small ligands such as pseudohalides or to ligands that are specifically designed to ...
A hand-made diode bridge. The silver band on the diodes indicates the cathode side of the diode.. A diode bridge is a bridge rectifier circuit of four diodes that is used in the process of converting alternating current (AC) from the input terminals to direct current (DC, i.e. fixed polarity) on the output terminals.
In the context of chemistry, cis indicates that the functional groups (substituents) are on the same side of some plane, while trans conveys that they are on opposing (transverse) sides. Cis – trans isomers are stereoisomers , that is, pairs of molecules which have the same formula but whose functional groups are in different orientations in ...
In chemistry, a disulfide (or disulphide in British English) is a compound containing a R−S−S−R′ functional group or the S 2− 2 anion.The linkage is also called an SS-bond or sometimes a disulfide bridge and usually derived from two thiol groups.
