. Can. J. Chem. 55,4257 (1977). Several polypeptides have been synthesized which contain the alternating sequence lysyl-X, where X = gly, L-ala, D-ala, L-val, L-leu, and L-phe. The polypeptides have been characterized by gel filtration (molecular weight) and by circular dichroism spectroscopy (secondary structure).LEWIS A. SLOTIN, DENIS R. LAUREN et Ross E. WILLIAMS. Can.
