Coiled coils : electrostatics & macromolecular assemblies

The coiled coil is a common and well-studied protein-folding motif. It is based on the seven-residue repeat abcdefg, where a and d residues are largely hydrophobic. Structurally, coiled coils comprise two or more a-helices that are brought together with the a and d residues packing in a well-defined...
