===Beta-Sheet===
Each monomer of KSI contains a <scene name='User:Laura_M._Haynes/Sandbox_1/Beta-sheet/1'>six-strand mixed beta-sheet</scene>.  Strand 1 of the &beta;-sheet is composed of residues Glu43 to Gly47.  Strand 2 is contains residues Ala34 to Asp38 and runs antiparallel to strand 1.  Leu63 to Val74 make up strand 3 which runs antiparallel to strand 4 (Glu77 to Tyr88).  Residues Arg91 to  Phe104 and Lys108 to Gly124 form strands 5 and 6 respectively.  Strand 5 runs antiparallel to strand 4, while strand 6 runs antiparallel to strand 5 and parallel to strand 1.<ref name="Wu" />  Each &beta;-sheet contains two &beta;-bulges: <scene name='User:Laura_M._Haynes/Sandbox_1/Beta_bulge_1/1'>Thr68 to Glu70 </scene> and <scene name='User:Laura_M._Haynes/Sandbox_1/Beta_bulge_3/1'>Phe116 to Asn120</scene>.

Both the &beta;-bulges participate in dimer-dimer interactions, potentially leading to their stabilization.  The juxtaposition of the two &beta;-bulges on each side of the sheet with a central proline residue creates a substantial kink in the &beta;-sheet.<ref name="Wu" />
