+====== Rossmann Fold =======
+This fold is made up of three or more parallel [[glossary:beta_strand | beta strands]] linked by two [[glossary:alpha_helix | alpha helices]] in the topological order beta-alpha-beta-alpha-beta. Two Rossmann folds, wound in opposite
+directions create a dinucleotide binding unit found in many enzymes, specifically
+in nucleotide binding proteins (hence its alternative name mononucleotide-binding
+[[glossary: motif | motif]]).
+{{ :glossary:rossmann_fold.gif?900 |}}
+The example shown is a mannose permease (CATH domain ID 1pdoA00).
