“…The helical population of individual residues, p α ( i ), was estimated as the ratio of Δδ( i )/Δδ o ( i ), where the reference values of secondary chemical shifts, Δδ o ( i ), were assumed to be 2.8, 2.3 and −0.4 ppm for 13 Cα, 13 CO and 1 Hα, respectively (Wishart and Sykes 1994 ; Schwarzinger et al 2000 ). In view of the consistency of the Δδ( i ) distribution pattern for 13 Cα, 13 CO and 1 Hα, the consensus local propensities toward a helical structure were expressed as the geometric average of the three descriptors referred to above (Kaczka et al 2010 ). The population of helical structures were additionally estimated on the δ2D server (uk/d2D/ Jobs submitted: July 2014 ), the algorithm of which is based on the larger set of chemical shift data ( 1 Hα, 13 Cα, 13 Cβ, 13 CO, N and HN) (Camilloni et al 2012 ).…”
