Figure 5.
Figure 5. Structure of the five-residue reverse turn and C-terminal segment in M7-A (A) and M7-B (B). In M7-A the peptide bond 9-10 adopts cis form and both NH10 and CO9 groups of the peptide are out of the reverse turn to interact with the C-terminal residues. In M7-B the group NH10 contacts neither residue 8 nor C-terminal residues in flexible state and, thus, the peptide bond 9-10 takes cis/trans co-existence. For clarity the side-chains of residues 8-12 are only shown corresponding to the cis form of the peptide 9-10, with deletion of His10 not shown in the Figures.
