## Abstract The synthesis of some repetitive sequences of elastin and their simplified analogues, all comprising the structural unit GlyβXβGly (X = Val, Leu, Ala), is described. In particular, the following peptides and polypeptides were synthesized and characterized: BocβGlyβValβGlyβGlyβLeuβOMe, B
