The solution conformation of renin inhibitor peptide, Pro-His-Pro-Phe-His-Phe-Phe-Val-Tyr-Lys, was established using proton magnetic resonance techniques. As a first step a complete resonance assignment was made in DMSO-d6 using 2D NMR techniques. Some of the backbone N H protons show a very low tem

✦ Synopsis
In order to evaluate the influenceof cyclic secondaryamino acids on the stability of ~-turn structure,we have preparedAc-Gly-L-Xxx-L-Leu-Gly -N(CH3)2(Xxx= Aze, 4-memberedring: 1, Xxx = Pro, 5-memberedring: 2, Xxx = Pip, 6-memberedring: 3). The NOE cross peaks that support $turn structure were observedin 1-3. The NOE cross peak betweenboth terminalsof the syntheticpeptides, however,was observedonly in the NOESYspectraof 2. This result indicatesthat 5-memberedring side chain in prolineplays a veryimportantrole in the formationof ~-hairpinstructure. @ 1997Elsevier ScienceLtd.
