title: Complexation and medium effects on the conformation of cyclosporin A studied by NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics calculations.
abstract: The conformation of cyclosporin A was investigated in different environments. Whereas there was no distinct difference between the structure of CSA in CDCl3 and THF, the addition of LiCl caused a conformational change. Also, using polar solvents (DMSO, water) induced conformational changes in the backbone as well as the side chains.
