How can you use “helices” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

All mfold outputs were parsed, and information about the number of structures, number of arms per structure, size of helices within arms and size and symmetry of the internal loops within arms was loaded into the MySQL database.
Moreover, secondary structure prediction suggested that each PfPP5 TPR also has the potential to form the two conserved helices (A and B), as marked in Fig.
Since mfold tends to insert small helices within terminal loops that falsely reduce the size of the terminal loop, small terminal loops (3, 4 or 5 nucleotides in length) were extended to seven nucleotides.
One model of a ligand-binding pocket in ORs stipulates the existence of 20 variable amino-acid residues on transmembrane helices 3,4 and 5 that constitute the putative ligand 'complementarity-determining region' [ 5, 42].
While the majority of these structure models contain standard G:C, A:U, and G:U base-pairings arranged into regular secondary structure helices, there were many novel base-pairing exchanges ( e.g., U:U <-> C:C; A:A <-> G:G; G:U <-> A:C; etc. ) and base pairs that form tertiary or tertiary-like structural elements.
