Ramachandran plot
This term refers to a specialized visualization tool used in structural biology and biochemistry. It serves as a diagnostic map to determine if a protein model is physically plausible by checking if the dihedral angles of the amino acid residues fall within sterically allowed regions.
Because it is a technical term named after G. N. Ramachandran, it is typically treated as a proper noun phrase. In professional literature, it is used to validate the quality of X-ray crystallography or NMR structures, where "outliers" on the plot indicate potential errors in the atomic coordinates or unusual local conformations.
