## Abstract The x‐ray structure of Boc‐L‐Ala‐Aib‐Ala‐Aib‐Ala‐Glu(OBzl)‐Ala‐Aib‐Ala‐Aib‐Ala‐OMe(I) represents the first α‐helix determined by direct methods. This undecapeptide is a model of the N‐terminus of alamethicin, and it exhibits voltage‐dependent pores in bilayer membranes at a higher volta
As models of the helical N-terminal part of alamethicin the undecapeptides Boc-L-Ala-[Aib-Ala]2-Glu(0Bzl)-Ala-[Aib-Ala],-OMe (1) and Boc-~-Ala-[Aib-Ala]~-Gly-Ala-[Aib-Ala]~-OMe (2) were synthesized. 1 was examined by X-ray crystallography using direct methods for solution of the phase problem.

OMe (I), which is an analogue of the N-terminal sequence of antiamoebins and emerimicins, establishes a completely 3,0-helical conformation with seven successive intramolecular 4 + 1 hydrogen bonds. The average, 4,+ values for residues 1-8 are -59" and -32", respectively. Crystal parameters are C47H
