Snakes on a Plane and short film parody competitions. On July 6, 2006, the official "Snakes on a Plane" website started a promotional sweepstakes called "The #1 Fan King Cobra Sweepstakes". The contest made innovative use of the publicity-generating potential of the Internet, requiring contestants to post links on forums, blogs, and websites and collecting votes from the users of those sites. Many of the early fan-made trailers and later other viral videos and commercials circulated via YouTube, and captured media attention there with such titles as: "Cats on a Plane" (which was featured in Joel Siegel's review of "Snakes on a Plane" on
Peptide plane flipping Peptide plane flipping Peptide plane flipping is a type of conformational change that can occur in proteins by which the dihedral angles of adjacent amino acids undergo large-scale rotations with little displacement of the side chains. The plane flip is defined as a rotation of the dihedral angles φ,ψ at amino acids "i" and "i+1" such that the resulting angles remain in structurally stable regions of Ramachandran space. The key requirement is that the "sum" of the ψ angle of residue "i" and the φ angle of residue "i+1" remain roughly constant; in effect, the flip is a crankshaft move
