The "ELR" (Glu-Leu-Arg) tripeptide sequence near the N-terminus of interleukin-8 (IL-8) contributes a large part of the receptor binding free energy. Prior X-ray and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) structures of IL-8 have shown this region of the molecule to be highly mobile. We reasoned that a hyd

## Abstract The 36‐amino acid avian pancreatic polypeptide has been studied by x‐ray analysis at 0.98‐Å resolution and refined using a restrained least‐squares technique to an agreement factor of 15.6%. The polypeptide, which has a compact globular structure with a hydrophobic core, comprises a pol
## Abstract The total chemical synthesis of RNase A using modern chemical ligation methods is described, illustrating the significant advances that have been made in chemical protein synthesis since Gutte and Merrifield's pioneering preparation of RNase A in 1969. The identity of the synthetic prod
The characteristic CXC chemokine disulfide core of interleukin-8 (IL-8) has been rearranged in a variant replacing the 9-50 disulfide with a 9-38 disulfide. The new variant has been characterized by its binding affinity to IL-8 receptors A and B and the erythrocyte receptor DARC. This variant binds
