Measured at 2 degrees C in water, NMR chemical shifts of (13)C=O labeled central alanine residues of peptides W-Lys(5)-(t)L(3)-Ala(n)-(t)L(3)-Lys(5)NH(2), n = 9, 11, 13, 15, 19 and W-Lys(5)-(t)L(3)-a-Ala(n)-A-Inp-(t)L(2)-Lys(5)NH(2) (a = D-Ala; (t)L = tert-leucine; Inp = 4-carboxypiperidine) are used to assign jt(L) and ct(L), the N- and C-terminal (t)L capping parameters and length-dependent values for w(Ala)(n), the alanine helical propensity for Ala(n) peptides. These parameters allow Lifson- ...[more]
