The twists and turns of β‐peptides

DeGrado, W.F., Schneider, J.P., Hamuro, Y.·1999·The Journal of Peptide Research

Abstract

Abstract: Recently, it has been discovered that peptides composed of β‐amino acids are capable of adopting novel secondary structures demonstrating that peptides composed of α‐amino acids are not unique in their ability to fold into well‐defined structures. Cyclic as well as acyclic peptides composed of β‐amino acid residues adopt turn, helical, and sheet‐like conformations. Here, we discuss the synthesis and conformational preferences of individual, substituted β‐amino acids as well as the structures that peptides composed of these residues, β‐peptides, may adopt.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
