Fig 5. CD analysis of Htt17, Htt46 and Htt128.

Fig 5

(A) CD spectra of Htt17, Htt46 and Htt128. (B) Based on the determined CD spectra, the secondary structures of Htt17, Htt46 and Htt128 were analyzed with Selcon3. Htt is not a purely helical protein (helix >50% and strand <5%), but rather a helix-rich protein (40% helix) mixed with strand (10%), which is consistent with the results of Htt secondary prediction by the PHD neuro-network. Significant differences in the secondary structure of Htt17, Htt46 and Htt128 were not observed.
