The first chain is made of two beta-sheets and a set of 2 alpha-helices. Each beta-sheet contains four antiparallel strands. The total molecular weight of the alpha chain is 33 kDa when not associated to any oligosaccharide and 55 kDa when the five oligosaccharides are associated to the chain. | The first chain is made of two beta-sheets and a set of 2 alpha-helices.
