Additional Inherited Members
Static Public Attributes inherited from seqan3::alphabet_base< dssp9, 9 >
static constexpr detail::min_viable_uint_t< size >	alphabet_size
	The size of the alphabet, i.e. the number of different values it can take.
Protected Types inherited from seqan3::alphabet_base< dssp9, 9 >
using	char_type = std::conditional_t< std::same_as< char, void >, char, char >
	The char representation; conditional needed to make semi alphabet definitions legal.
using	rank_type = detail::min_viable_uint_t< size - 1 >
	The type of the alphabet when represented as a number (e.g. via to_rank()).

Detailed Description

The protein structure alphabet of the characters "HGIEBTSCX".

The DSSP annotation links structure elements to protein sequences. Originally created with 7 letters as a file format for the DSSP program (https://swift.cmbi.umcn.nl/gv/dssp/), it is also used in the stockholm file format for structure alignments, extended by the characters C and X (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_format).

The letter abbreviations are as follows:

H = alpha helix B = beta bridge E = strand G = helix-3 I = helix-5 T = turn S = bend C = coil/loop X = unknown

This entity is experimental and subject to change in the future. Experimental since version 3.1.
