A helical wheel is a type of plot or visual representation used to illustrate the properties of alpha helices in proteins. The sequence of amino acids that make up a helical region of the protein's secondary structure are plotted in a rotating manner where the angle of rotation between consecutive amino acids is 100°, so that the final ...

An alpha helix (or α-helix) is a sequence of amino acids in a protein that are twisted into a coil (a helix). The alpha helix is the most common structural arrangement in the secondary structure of proteins. It is also the most extreme type of local structure, and it is the local structure that is most easily predicted from a sequence of amino ...
The classical table/wheel of the standard genetic code is arbitrarily organized based on codon position 1. Saier, [12] following observations from, [13] showed that reorganizing the wheel based instead on codon position 2 (and reordering from UCAG to UCGA) better arranges the codons by the hydrophobicity of their encoded amino acids. This ...

"Overhead view", or helical wheel diagram, of a leucine zipper, where d represents leucine, arranged with other amino acids on two parallel alpha helices.. A leucine zipper (or leucine scissors [1]) is a common three-dimensional structural motif in proteins.
Protein sequence is typically notated as a string of letters, listing the amino acids starting at the amino-terminal end through to the carboxyl-terminal end. Either a three letter code or single letter code can be used to represent the 22 naturally encoded amino acids, as well as mixtures or ambiguous amino acids (similar to nucleic acid ...
