alphasecondary
Alphasecondary refers to a specific type of protein secondary structure that combines elements of both alpha-helices and beta-sheets, though it is not a widely recognized or standard classification in mainstream structural biology. The term is sometimes used in niche contexts, particularly in discussions about atypical or hybrid secondary structures in proteins.
In conventional protein folding terminology, secondary structures are categorized primarily into three types: alpha-helices, beta-sheets, and
The concept may arise in computational or experimental studies where proteins exhibit unusual folding patterns, such
