title: [Spatial structure of isoleucine pentapeptides Glu-Phe-Leu-Arg-Ile-NH2 and Pro-Phe-Tyr-Arg-Ile-NH2].
abstract: The spatial structure of two cardioactive isoleucine pentapeptides Glu-Phe-Leu-Arg-Ile-NH2 (I) and Pro-Phe-Tyr-Arg-Ile-NH2 (II) have been investigated using the theoretical conformational analysis. The low-energy conformations of these molecules were found, the values of dihedral angles of the backbone and side chains of the amino acid residues constituting these peptides were determined, and the energies of intra- and interresidual interactions were estimated. It was revealed that the spatial structure of molecule I can exist as five and that of molecule II as seven stable backbone forms.
