Abstract

A quantitative study of the secondary structures of the 11S and 7S globulins from cotton seeds has been made by the circular dichroism (CD) method. It has been established that the 11S and 7S globulins contain, respectively: 16 and 14% of α-helices; 15% each of β-structures; 18 and 20% of β-bends; and 51% each of irregular sections.
