## Abstract The Raman spectra of poly‐L‐lysine hydrochloride and poly‐ϵ‐carbobenzoxy‐L‐lysine in the solid state have been obtained and are consistent with the presence of an α‐helical structure. The Raman spectrum of poly‐L‐lysine in aqueous solution suggests the presence of random coil structures

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Pronase E is able to hydrolyze poly‐L‐lysine in 100% yield into the monomer L‐lysine. The experiments show an intermediate production of tri‐L‐lysine and di‐L‐lysine that are clipped off from the polymeric peptide. During the hydrolytic process a number of characteristic amino acids are released from the enzyme that may indicate its activation. Amino acids as well as mono‐L‐lysine are decomposed by pronase E after a period of several days.
