The disrupting effect of a prolyl residue on an a-helix has been analyzed by means of conformational energy computations. In the preferred, nearly a-helical conformations of Ac-Ala,-Pro-NHMe and of Ac-Ala7-Pro-Ah7-NHMe, only the residue preceding Pro is not a-helical, while all other residues can oc

An analysis of the amino acid distributions at 15 positions, viz., NЉ, NЈ, Ncap, N1, N2, N3, N4, Mid, C4, C3, C2, C1, Ccap, CЈ, and CЉ in 1,131 ␣-helices reveals that each position has its own unique characteristics. In general, natural helix sequences optimize by identifying the residues to be avoi
