Structural similarities can be seen in subdomains of different folds, as classified by the Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) database.
In this example, the center column shows the structural superimposition of a pair of partially similar structures, with the first structure on the left and the second structure on the right. An orange contour reveals structurally equivalent residues.
