A strained N-capping motif in α-helices of βαβ-units

AM Kargatov - Journal of Structural Biology, 2024 - Elsevier
A novel helical N-capping motif has been considered. It occurs in the βα-arches of right-
handed βαβ-units and contains an N-cap residue in a sterically strained conformation …

Proline-Aromatic Sequences Stabilize Turns via C–H/π interactions in both cis-Proline and trans-Proline

HK Ganguly, MB Elbaum, NJ Zondlo - 2023 - chemrxiv.org
In proteins, proline-aromatic sequences exhibit increased frequencies of cis-proline amide
bonds, via proposed C–H/π interactions between the aromatic ring and either the proline …
