[Spatial structure of Thr-Pro-Ala-Glu-Asp-Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 molecule]
Abstract:
The spatial structure of cardioactive Thr-Pro-Ala-Glu-Asp-Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 molecule has been investigated using a theoretical conformational analysis. The low-energy conformations of the molecule were found, the values of the backbone and side T-T chain dihedral angles of amino acid residues constituting the peptide were determined, and the energies of intra- and interresidual interactions were estimated. It is revealed that the spatial structure of this molecule can exist in 11 stable backbone forms.
