New study confirms 'rippled sheet' protein structure predicted in 1953

An unusual protein structure known as a ‘rippled beta sheet,’ first predicted in 1953, has now been created in the laboratory and characterized in detail using x-ray crystallography. The new findings may enable the rational design of unique materials based on the rippled sheet architecture.
