title: Bradykinin antagonists do not require a D-aromatic amino acid residue at position 7.
abstract: More than 200 new analogs of bradykinin have been synthesized and assayed. Analogs containing a D-aliphatic amino acid residue at position 7 and an L-aliphatic residue at position 8 are very potent antagonists of BK action on classical systems. Thus the "conventional wisdom" that a D-aromatic amino acid residue is required at sequence position 7 of BK antagonists must be modified.
