  | Dear Colleagues,

It has already been done for you, have a look at DSSP:

<http://www.sander.embl-heidelberg.de/dssp/>

  The DSSP program was designed by Wolfgang Kabsch and Chris Sander to
  standardize secondary structure assignment. The DSSP database is a
  database of secondary structure assignments (and much more) for all of
  the entries in the Protein Data Bank (PDB).

Databases files:

<ftp://ftp.embl-heidelberg.de/pub/databases/protein_extras/dssp>

                              Hope this helps!
