Dermorphin, a natural peptide opioid containing a D-Ala2 residue, has been studied in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution by means of several one-dimensional and two-dimensional 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods at various fields from 80 to 600 MHz. The combined use of conventional NMR parameters and of nuclear Overhauser effect effects points to an essentially extended structure. This conformation may be, in part, the result of strong interaction of the amide groups with DMSO molecules.

Abstract

Dermorphin, a natural peptide opioid containing a D-Ala2 residue, has been studied in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution by means of several one-dimensional and two-dimensional 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods at various fields from 80 to 600 MHz. The combined use of conventional NMR parameters and of nuclear Overhauser effect effects points to an essentially extended structure. This conformation may be, in part, the result of strong interaction of the amide groups with DMSO molecules.
