The relative amounts of α-helix and β-sheet were determined by adding together the contributions from helix 1 plus helix 2 and strand 1 plus strand 2, respectively, whereas the amounts of β-turn and random structure were read directly from the output. The peptides clearly showed greater helicity in SDS than in PBS.
