Ramachandran plots are graphical representations used to visualize the dihedral angles phi (φ) and psi (ψ) of amino acid residues in protein structures. These angles describe the rotation around the N-Cα and Cα-C bonds of the protein backbone, respectively. Because the peptide bond is planar and rigid, the allowed conformations of these angles are limited by steric hindrance between atoms.
