Trypsin's amino | Trypsin's primary amino acid sequence forms two <scene name='Sandbox_30/Helixs_maroon/2'>α helices</scene> and two <scene name='Sandbox_30/Sheets_green/3'>β sheets</scene>. Both of the α helices are right handed and the β sheets are anti-parallel. The order of the secondary structures is easily visible when using the <scene name='Sandbox_30/Trypsin_cartoon_rainbow/2'>rainbow coloration</scene> scheme to identify secondary structures. The N-terminus (blue) is the beginning of trypsin and the C-terminus (agua-green) is the end. | ||
