As seen in the example in Fig. 5, the direction of the strands are all parallel. This represents a general trend in Rossmann folds. However in some Rossmann folds there may be some strands in anti-parallel direction.<ref name="Hanukoglu-2015" /> | As seen in the example in Fig. 5, the direction of the strands are all parallel.

As compared to the direction of the β-strands, the direction of the helical segments is generally anti-parallel to the β-strands (Fig. 5). | |||
In some Rossmann fold domains, the segments in between the β-strands may include a complex series of helical and coiled segments (for example see [[3bhi]]). | |||
