Key Equations

$$p = n \times d = 3.6 \times 1.5\;\text{\AA} = 5.4\;\text{\AA}$$
$$\theta = \frac{2\pi \times 3.6}{7} \approx 20°$$
$$\Delta G_{\text{folding}} = -300 - (-260) = -40\;\text{kJ/mol}$$
$$E(\text{native}) \ll E(\text{unfolded})$$

Equations are rendered with MathJax in the PDF with professional LaTeX typesetting.
