Karl, Here's the report for 2mhr according to DSSP, which we are using now for Jmol's standard structure calculation. Wouldn't surprise me at all if a turn is 3, 4, or 5 residues -- that's the nature of them in DSSP.
SUMMARY: G : A:12_A:14 H : A:19_A:37 H : A:41_A:64 T : A:65_A:66 T : A:68_A:69 H : A:70_A:85 T : A:86_A:86 H : A:93_A:109 T : A:110_A:110 G : A:111_A:114 T : A:115_A:117 and attached details. The various kinds of turns in DSSP are probably not all beta turns by that definition, because they can be from 4 to 6 residues: >33< >444< >5555< And if parts of them overlap with other structural forms, they will show up as being shorter than their usual length (see attached listing). I'll be surprised if you can find an error vis-a-vis DSSP. I think we have a very solid implementation of that.
