If you want a convenient, static view of the structurally-determined [[Secondary structure|secondary structure]], or alternatively the ''secondary structure topology'' or ''wiring diagram'', click on ''PDBsum'' below any structure on a PDB entry page in Proteopedia and then on the PDBsum page navigate to the chain you are interested in from the ''Contents'' listing on left side of the main PDBsum page. The '''secondary structure'''  will be illustrated above the sequence in the main view with the ''secondary structure topology'' or ''wiring diagram'' accessible on the right.  The '''secondary structure'''  will also be illustrated above the sequence in the main view accessible under the ''Sequence'' tab at the [http://www.pdb.org Protein Data Bank].

Many structures displayed on Proteopedia's PDB entry pages default to the cartoon view showing alpha helices and beta-sheets. If you need to see the secondary structure represented within the structure for any Proteopedia structure window, even or any [[Jmol]] view, ''click on the Jmol frank,'' and navigate the menu that comes up to first first ''Select'' --> ''All'' and then turn on the cartoons (''Style''--->''Scheme''--->''cartoon'') and then for added help color this cartoon representation by the scheme outlined in the next section below ( ''Color''--> ''Structures'''--> ''Cartoon'' ---> ''By Scheme'' -->''Secondary Structure'') . For advanced users, this is more easily accomplished by way of Jmol commands in the console, ''select all; cartoon on, color structure''.
