This collagen helix is taken directly from human collagen, and may be viewed in the [[1bkv]]. Notice that the top half is very uniform, where the sequence is the ideal mixture of glycine and prolines. At the bottom, the helix is less regular, because many different amino acids are placed between the equally-spaced glycines. | This collagen helix is taken directly from human collagen, and may be viewed in the [[1bkv]].
