| Abstract | This paper reports conformational changes observed in cyclic bioactive peptides such as gramicidin S and avellanin upon incorporation of a pseudo-beta (C9) Ant-(D)Pro turn motif in their structural frameworks. Solution-state studies suggested that a synthetic gramicidin S analog exhibits a beta-sheet conformation with C9 and C17 intramolecular hydrogen bonding patterns, while its truncated analog disturbs the beta-sheet conformation. Structural details were obtained using a combination of CD studies, X-ray crystal structure studies and nOe-based MD simulation studies. |
