The DSSP program was designed by Kabsch & Sander (1983)[link] to standardize secondary-structure assignment. The DSSP database is a database of secondary-structure assignments (and much more) for all protein entries in the Protein Data Bank.

Location: http://www.sander.embl-heidelberg.de/dssp/ . Operating systems: SGI, SUN, DEC and LINUX. Type: source code and binary. Language: C. Distribution: free.
