The interactive Jmol window on the right shows a beta turn (<scene name='10/1072233/Turn_2mhr/2'>reload initial scene</scene>) indicating the short distance between the first and the fourth alpha carbon. Because of this short distance, the polypeptide takes a sharp turn, sometimes also called a reverse turn. There are many types of beta turns, and they differ in the [[Tutorial:Ramachandran_principle_and_phi_psi_angles|phi and psi angles]] of residues two and three<ref>PMID:7756980</ref>. Some turns feature a <scene name='10/1072233/Turn_2mhr/4'>hydrogen bond</scene> between residues one and four (like the one shown here) and others don't. | The interactive Jmol window on the right shows a beta turn (<scene name='10/1072233/Turn_2mhr/2'>reload initial scene</scene>) indicating the short distance between the first and the fourth alpha carbon.
