Table 2.

Secondary structure fractions calculated by deconvolution of circular dichroism spectra. Shown are results for the bacterial thioredoxin-ZnT8A amino terminal domain fusion (TRX-ntZnT8A), the ZnT8A carboxy-terminal domain (ctZnT8A), the carboxy-terminal domain of YiiP (ctYiiP), and bacterial thioredoxin (TRX). Deconvolution solutions produced by the CDSSTR method, using a reference dataset of 128 membrane and soluble protein structures (Abdul-Gader et al., 2011). Secondary structure fractions noted are regular α-helix (αR), distorted α-helix (αD), regular β-strand (βR), distorted β-strand (βD), β-turn (T), and unordered (U), as defined by (Sreerama et al., 1999). The normalized root mean square deviation (NRMSD) is shown for each solution.
