title: Modified calmodulin calcium binding domain III. Solid phase synthesis, purification and 1H n.m.r. characterization.
abstract: The dodecapeptide Ac-Asp-Lys-Asp-Gly-Asn-Gly-Tyr-Ile-Ser-Ala-Ala-Gaba-OH is a modified calmodulin calcium binding domain III. The synthesis of the peptide by the solid phase method with a total protection scheme using PAM-resin is reported. The purified compound has been characterized by 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy, both in the presence and in the absence of calcium ions, at various pHs. No strong specific interaction seems to occur between the peptide and Ca++ ions in water solutions.
