The secondary structure consists of 14 alpha helices and 8 beta sheets per monomer, making it fall in the SCOP category of alpha and beta proteins. The tertiary structure is a <scene name='Christian_Krenk_Sandbox/Alpha_beta_barrel/2'>alpha-beta barrel.</scene> | The secondary structure consists of 14 alpha helices and 8 beta sheets per monomer, making it fall in the SCOP category of alpha and beta proteins.
