Fig. 1. 3D structure of legume proteins in comparison with animal proteins as rendered by the Chimera software, available at http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/, using the molecular
coordinates deposited in the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank. Ribbon diagrams of the 1AVU.pdb (soybean trypsin inhibitor), 2CTV.pdb (concanavalin A), 3AUP.pdb (7S globulin),
1MBS.pdb (myoglobin), 3V03.pdb (bovine serum albumin) and 1BSY.pdb (β-lactoglobulin) files have been generated to illustrate the α-helical and β-sheet regions of the protein molecules
