Abstract

Model file name: alpha helix 0.7.dae

Authors: Michelle E Howell, Rebecca L Roston

This is a teaching model of a stick representation of a protein α-helix (PDB: 3vjo). This model can accompany a corresponding space fill representation, a kinked α-helix, and a β-sheet. These models were designed to accompany a teaching module illustrating protein secondary structure and function. The printable model is already uploaded to Shapeways.com in the MacroMolecules shop under the name “Alpha Helix_Thick”. This model has been printed successfully using these parameters on Shapeways’ binder jetting printer in the Coated Full Color Sandstone material.
