## Abstract Asymmetric disulfide conjugates of mercaptosuccinyl tobacco mosaic virus (TMV ∼ SH) with __N__^α^‐desacetyl‐__N__^α^‐5‐(mercaptovaleryl)‐α‐melanotropin were prepared __via__ the __S__‐sulfoderivative of the peptide. The conjugates, TMV ∼ SS ∼ α‐MSH(__n__), contained up to __n__ = 330 d

## Abstract Chemical synthesis and biological activities of a new α‐melanotropin derivative are described. __N__^α^‐(5‐Bromovaleryl)‐__N__^α^‐deacetyl‐α‐melanotropin contains the 5‐bromopentanoyl group as a chemical ‘handle’ in place of the acetyl group of the natural hormone. The synthesis involve
## Abstract γ‐MSH, a third melanotropic sequence in the __N__‐terminal cryptic portion of the ACTH/β‐LPH precursor molecule pro‐opiocortin, was synthesized by the fragment condensation approach. The dodecapeptide H‐Tyr‐Val‐Met‐Gly‐His‐Phe‐Arg‐Trp‐Asp‐Arg‐Phe‐Gly‐OH was tested for melanocyte‐stimula
