It is becoming increasingly apparent that parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) modulates cellular function in a dual mode of action: first, by binding and activating its cognate cell surface G-protein-coupled receptor and, second, by direct intracellular effects following translocation to the
## Synopsis Efforts to understand the chemical-physical basis for peptide hormone and neurotransmitter action requires integration of conformational parameters and biological properties. Since most peptide hormones are conformationally flexible, the question arises as to which of the manifold of c
