## Abstract The α‐factor receptor(Ste2p) is required for the sexual conjugation of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ste2p belongs to the G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) family sharing a common heptahelical transmembrane structure. Biological synthesis of regions of Ste2p fused to a leader prot

## Abstract Fragments of G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are widely used as models to investigate these polytopic integral–membrane, signal‐transducing molecules, but have proven difficult to prepare in quantities necessary for NMR analyses. We report on the biosynthesis of two double transmemb
Peptides representing both loop and the sixth transmembrane regions of the ␣-factor receptor of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were synthesized by solid-phase procedures and purified to near homogeneity. CD, nmr, and modeling analysis indicated that in aqueous media the first extracellular loop peptide E1
