## Abstract Amino acids are known to differ in their individual preferences for each of the four positions of the β‐turn conformation formed by tetrapeptide segments. Proline and glycine show relatively high preferences for positions 2 and 3, respectively, of the β‐turn. Using tripeptides of the ty
## Abstract The normal modes have been calculated for structures having the dihedral angles of the four β‐turns of insulin. Frequencies are predicted in the amide I region near 1652 and 1680 cm^−1^. The former overlaps the α‐helix band at 1658 cm^−1^ in the Raman spectrum, while the latter accounts
The cyclopentadecapeptide, c(VPGVG),, a model structure for protein type-I1 8-turns [W. J. Cook et al. (1980) J. Am. Chem. SOC. 102, 5502-55051, has been investigated by laser Raman spectroscopy. Data obtained from both normal and deuterated crystals identify amide I, 111, 1', and 111' bands charact
