Estimation of Protein Secondary Structure from Circular Dichroism Spectra: Comparison of CONTIN, SELCON, and CDSSTR Methods with an Expanded Reference Set

TL;DR: Analyzing protein CD spectra using all three methods should improve the reliability of predicted secondary structural fractions, and three programs are provided in CDPro software package and have been modified for easier use with the different reference sets described in this paper.

[4] Circular dichroism

TL;DR: Circular dichroism is a spectroscopic method which depends on the fact that certain molecules interact differently with right and left circularly polarized light and can provide information about the secondary structure of proteins and nucleic acids and about the binding of ligands to these types of macromolecule.

Obtaining information about protein secondary structures in aqueous solution using Fourier transform IR spectroscopy

TL;DR: The principles that underlie the determination of protein secondary structure by FTIR spectroscopy are detailed, as well as the basic steps involved in protein sample preparation, instrument operation,FTIR spectra collection and spectra analysis in order to estimate protein secondary-structural components in aqueous solution.

Solving least squares problems

TL;DR: Since the lm function provides a lot of features it is rather complicated so it is going to instead use the function lsfit as a model, which computes only the coefficient estimates and the residuals.

- 06 Jan 1981 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a linear combination of the CD spectra (from 190 to 240 nm) of 16 proteins whose secondary structures are known from X-ray crystallography was used to characterize helix, beta sheet, beta turn, and remainder.
