|   | pepcoil | 
The parallel two-stranded alpha-helical coiled coil is the most frequently encountered subunit-oligomerization motif in proteins.
pepcoil calculates the probability of a coiled-coil structure for windows of 28 residues through a protein sequence using the method of Lupas A, van Dyke M & Stock J (1991); Science 252:1162-4
