I would consider the repeat to be 2 helices (which also makes sense as ankyrin motif without the beta hairpin). In that case there are 7 2-helical repeats that can be described with a single axis, so it is also consistent with repeats tag R.
Agree, R/7. Near the N-terminus the repeats are 2 helices, but towards the middle they develop an additional short helix.
The orientations aren't very consistent, but that's ok.
SCOP: contains three helices per turn of the superhelix; there are regular repeats in the middle part and less regular superhelical turns at both ends; one repeat consist of 3 helices; there are similarities in the repeat sequence and assembly with the ankyrin repeat.
If we only consider the inner part, it could be a superhelix, but the terminal parts deviate quite a lot. Annotated as SH now.
