These structures are precise replicas of the peptide backbone found in proteins.\r\n\r\nWatch this video to see them in action: \r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1usemtIYe_s\r\n\r\nMost angles remain fixed, just like they do in real proteins, but connecting these pieces with 1/8" set screws lets you simulate rotation about the phi and psi dihedral angles to create secondary structures such as beta sheets and alpha helices.\r\n\r\nNote: The set screws I use to connect the pieces are:\r\nAlloy Steel Set Screw, Black Oxide Finish, Hex Socket Drive, Meets ASME B18.3/ASTM F912, 1/2" Length, #6-32 UNC Threads, Imported (Pack of 100)\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FN3WUC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
