Abstract/Summary

The crystal structure of a terminally protected tripeptide Boc-Leu-Aib-beta-Ala-OMe 1 containing non-coded amino acids reveals that it adopts a beta-turn structure, which sell-assembles to form a supramolecular beta-sheet via non-covalent interactions. The SEM image of peptide 1 exhibits amyloid-like fibrillar morphology in the solid state. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
