Dear CCLers,

we are looking for a tool that can detect (because not always induced by 
proline)
and measure the angle of an kink in an alpha helix.
Any suggestions?
We found in the literature SWINK, (Cordes et al., Sansom Group)
 was developed to estimate the kink and swivel angle of TM small alpha, 
Greek-helices.
Any ideas, if this is available?

Many thanks in advance to the community for the any help provided.

Mireille Krier
