Abstract excerpt
The structures of a family of peptides that contain variants of the major alpha-helix of barnase (residues 6-18) have been analyzed in solution by circular dichroism (CD) and 1H NMR at various concentrations of the helix-inducing cosolvent trifluoroethanol (TFE). The very low equilibrium constant (approximately 10(-2) for the formation of helix in water KH2O was estimated from titration of the helical ellipticity...
