Position of Gaussian oscillators and their integral strength as percentage

	Position of oscillators		Integral strength of oscillator (in %)
	With random coil	Without random coil	With random coil	Without random coil
Side chain	1612–1614	1611–1614	2.5–4.6	2.4–4.5
β-sheet	1627–1630	1627–1630	15.4–22	15.4–25.4
Random coil	1640–1642	NA	1–1.4	NA
α-helix	1648–1651	1648–1652	65.9–71.9	66.5–73.9
β (anti.//+turn)	1679–1681	1679–1682	7–8.4	7.1–8.9

Contribution of oscillator representing random coil structure is very small (<1.4%, in all n = 90 mice) and becomes zero during deconvolution within fingerprint region as in Figure 1.
