A filament of RAD16-II comprises two β-sheets, each with a hydrophobic surface of alanine side chains oriented toward the filament center, and an outer hydrophilic surface of arginine and aspartic acid side chains. A filament has a roughly rectangular cross-section. Here the upper β-sheet is cut away to show the hydrophobic core.
