As implied by the rise and ellipticity information in the g_helix description, it would seem that an ideal helix is an alpha helix. I doubt this tool is useful when analyzing single residues; the program determines the longest continuous alpha helix and calculates properties related to it. g_helix may work on a single residue, but if you get output of all zeroes, don't be surprised. do_dssp may also be useful. -Justin > Thank you in advance, > > Hiroshi > ---------------------------------------- > Hiroshi Watanabe > Karlsruhe University > E-mail: hiroshi.watan...@chemie.uni-karlsruhe.de > > -- ======================================== Justin A.
