## Abstract Three phenylalanine derivatives, Ac‐Phe‐NHMe, H‐Phe‐NHMe, and Ac‐Phe‐OH, were selected as models of Phe residues situated at the internal, the N‐terminal, and the C‐terminal positions of peptide chains, respctively. The side‐chain conformations of the three compounds were analyzed from

## Abstract In order to study the effect of side‐chain length on the conformation of polypeptides, conformational changes of various ionic polypeptides with various lengths of side chain, poly‐__N__^ε^‐glutaryl‐L‐lysine (PGL), poly‐__N__^δ^‐glutaryl‐L‐ornithine (PGO), poly‐__N__^ε^‐succinyl‐L‐lysin
## Abstract The circular dichroism (CD) spectrum of poly‐L‐lysine and poly‐L‐glutamic acid has been investigated in the presence of a small percent of side‐chain blocking groups. The blocking groups benzyl, methyl, and carbobenzoxy show qualitatively similar effects. Less than five mole percent of
