Supplementary data 3: Description of Protein Blocks in the databank and in the loops (file_3.xls). file_3.xls is an Excel file. For each protein block (PB; labeled from a to p), we report the occurrence frequency (frq) in the overall database and in the loops set, the four main PB transitions and the distribution in the secondary structures (α-helix, coil and β-strand) of the central residue assigned by PSEA.
