As seen in the above example of ferredoxin reductase the β-sheet that is in the nucleotide domain may have more than two strands. In many (but not all) proteins with βαβ fold, the β-strands may be part of a larger β-sheet with up to seven β-strands.

Figure 5 shows five strands forming a β-sheet in phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase ([[2p9e]]). Note that the segment connecting the second strand to the third is in coiled confirmation and not helical. Whereas the subsequent connections between strands include α-helix segments. | ||
