Studies on the Secondary Structure of Bradykinin in Aqueous Solution. Syntheses, Circular Dichroism Spectra, and Biological Activities of Bradykinin Analogs Containing 5-Aminovaleric Acid Residue
of Arg1 and the carboxyl group of Arg9, was proposed for the secondarystructure of bradykinin in aqueous solution. The biological activities of these analogs depend on the presence of both Phe residues at positions 5 and 8, and Arg residues at positions 1 and 9. No correlation between the biological activities and the secondarystructure could be found.
