Figure 5.
The schematic illustration for determining the expected movement P⃑i0 of the ith Cα atom. The dashed, dotted, and solid vectors show the contributions from steric clash (from j), hydrogen-bonding (with k), and irregular local structure (from i-1) to the expected movement, respectively. The dashed-dotted line is vertical to P⃑i0 and random movements always point to the same side of P⃑i0.
