Given values correspond to analysis performed on the entire sequence of ACh EC50 values from the AChR LETMDs. Periodicities of the TrpPPs are given as mean ± SD. Expected rotation angles of the TrpPPs and the mean periodicities of the peaks that correspond to mean periodicities of the TrpPPs were calculated using periodicity (residues/turn) = 360°/rotation angle.
