The dimer interface of Hint is formed by antiparallel interactions between helix α2 and its symmetry mate and strand β4 and its symmetry mate [ 25].
Chemokines are small, positively charged, secreted proteins that consist of an N-terminal region of variable conformation, three antiparallel beta-pleated sheets connected by loops, and a C-terminal alpha helix [ 1 ] . These proteins are multifunctional, with different regions of the molecules, in particular the N- and C-termini, performing specific functions [e.g.
TPR domains consist of a series of antiparallel amphipathic α helices that bundle together through hydrophobic interactions to form a cradle-shaped groove, postulated to be involved in binding a number of proteins of regulatory importance such as heat shock protein 90, a major cellular chaperone [ 8 9 10 ] .
From his work with proteins, Crick saw immediately that the chains in the helical structure must be antiparallel and that there were probably two chains entwined.
have suggested that the highly conserved nature of the glycine in this region may indicate the existence of a loop structure consisting of either γ or a loose three residue-turn in the nAChR [ 12 ] . Either of these turns would bring the two putative β-strands together such that γL109, γY111 and γS115 and γY117 are all on the same side of an antiparallel β-sheet.
