18. A brief explanation of this estimation is as follows: Assume that the extinction coefficient is the same for the C=O stretching band arising from each secondary structure. Then the absorption intensity (area of band) is proportional to the number of the C=O groups involved, i.e., the number of the residues. Therefore, the intensity ratio among the bands is proportional to that of the number of residues contained in the particular secondary structure. Hence, the band intensity obtained from the fitting analysis is converted to the number of residues with the knowledge that there are 11 residues in total. See: Dong, A.; Huang, P.; Caughey, W. S. Biochemistry 1990, 29, 3303-3308.
19. -1 (not shown in Table 1). We did not count its contribution since the derived angle α was not equal to the theoretically expected value (90°). It is ascribed to an incompleteness of band decomposition. However, the conclusion is little changed even if this band is taken into consideration.
