Dataset Summary

The study of a protein’s secondary structure (Sec. Struc. P.) forms a fundamental cornerstone in understanding its biological function. This secondary structure, comprising helices, strands, and various turns, bestows the protein with a specific three-dimensional configuration, which is critical for the formation of its tertiary structure. In the context of this work, a given protein sequence is classified into three distinct categories, each representing a different structural element: H - Alpha-helix, G - 3-10 helix, I - Pi helix, E - Beta-strand, B - Beta-bridge, T - Turn, S - Bend, C - Coil (or random coil).

Data Fields

seq: a string containing the protein sequence

label: a sequence containing the structural label of each residue.
