	Secondary structure of a protein refers to the three-dimensional structure of local segments of a protein. Each type of secondary structure has segments that have a repeating conformational pattern which is produced by a repeating pattern of values for the [[Psi and Phi Angles\|phi and psi torsional angles]]. For this reason, on a [[Ramachandran Plots\|Ramachandran plot]], the values for phi and psi are located at a particular area of the plot for each secondary structure.
