Abstract

Phosphorylation of the tetrapeptide Gly‐Gly‐His‐Ala by phosphoamidate provides a model peptide for proteins which, in the course of their reaction, bind a phosphoryl group to an imidazole ring. ^31^P‐ and ^1^H‐NMR data, including chemical shift and pK values, for this peptide and its three phospho‐derivatives are presented. These data show that it is possible, by NMR studies, to decide whether or not a peptide or a protein is phosphorylated at the N‐1 or at the N‐3 position of an imidazole ring, and how this information can be achieved.
