Abstrakt: The conformation of a benzodiazepine-like decapeptide corresponding tothe YLGYLEQLLR fragment of a casein has been examined in a sodium dodecylsulfate micellar medium using circular dichroism, two-dimensionalH NMR spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamicssimulation. The decapeptide adopts an amphipathic 3-helicoidstructure in which theE···R ionic bridgestabilizes the C-terminus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
