Sample descriptor (built around the residue MET70 of the SCOP domain d1lg7a_ ). This descriptor contains 9 contacts (dashed lines) between its central amino-acid (red) and residues forming the centers of its elements. Some of the elements overlap forming longer segments (in particular fragments of two β-strands (blue and yellow) and fragment of α-helix (green)). Altogether, this descriptor comprises 5 continuous segments.
