Dependence of some conformational properties of polyglycine on composition and sequence of secondary structure.
The values of four conformational properties, unperturbed dimensions <r2>0, dipole moment <mu2>, mean squared optical anisotropy <gamma2> and molar Kerr constant <mK> have been calculated for polyglycine chains of x = 100 repeat units with varying composition of alpha-helix, beta-sheet and random coil conformations. The influence of the conformational sequence on these properties has been investigated by calculating the four above-mentioned properties together with the end-to-end vector for several polyglycine oligomers.
