| Abstract: | 1. The secondary structure of human interleuken-3 in solution was determined by circular dichroism spectroscopy. 2. The results were then compared with empirical secondary structure predictions based on primary sequence structure of the protein. 3. The two approaches are in extremently close agreement showing the protein to have 40% alpha-helix, 12% total beta-structure and 48% random coil content. |
