title: [Tertiary structure of myelopeptides. II. Conformational analysis of Phe-Arg-Pro-Arg-Ile-Met-Thr-Pro, Val-Val-Tyr-Pro-Asp, and Val-Asp-Pro-Pro].
abstract: Theoretical conformational analysis was used to study the spatial structure and conformational properties of myelopeptides, bone marrow peptide mediators. The low-energy conformations of myelopeptides MP-4 (Phe-Arg-Pro-Arg-Ile-Met-Thr-Pro), MP-5 (Val-Val-Tyr-Pro-Asp), and MP-6 (Val-Asp-Pro-Pro) were found; the values of dihedral angles of backbone and side chains of the amino acid residues were determined; and the energies of intra- and interresidual interactions were estimated.
