The conformational behavior in solution of a cyclic peptide with sequence cyclo-(Pro 1 -Pro 2 -Dab 3 (cHexA)c[N g HCO]-Leu 4 c[NHCO]-Suc 5 -Gly 6 -) has been throughly investigated with the combined use of nmr and molecular dynamic techniques. The compound, which has been modeled to mimic the FK506

Nocistatin, a new heptadecapeptide encoded in the bPNP-3 gene, has a powerful biological activity connected with the mechanisms of pain transmission. It does not bind to the opioid receptors but to another brain receptor with high affinity. In order to substantiate these novel biological data with a
## Synopsis The strategy and tactics of conformational analysis of cyclic peptides in solution is demonstrated by the example of cyclo(-D-Pro-Phe-TPhe-TYp-Phe-). Spin-locked experiments like rotating frame nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY), ROTO, and TOCSY are successfully applie
