title: Parallel beta-domains: a new fold in protein structures.
abstract: A new type of structural domain, composed of parallel beta-strands folded into a coiled structure, has been observed in several protein structures within the past year. An analysis of the basic motif indicates that there are two distinct types, with variations likely to be discovered in the future.
