Qısa məlumat

The conformational possibilities of the casoxin D (Tyr1-Val2-Pro3-Phe4-Pro5-Pro6-Phe7) molecule were studied by theoretical conformational analysis. The potential function of the system is chosen as the sum of non-valence, electrostatic and torsion interactions and the energy of hydrogen bonds. The low-energy conformations of the casoxin D molecule, the dihedral angles of the main and side chains of the amino acid residues that make up the molecule were found, and the energy of intra- and interresidual interactions was estimated. It has been shown that the spatial structure of the casoxin D molecule is represented by conformations of eight shapes of the peptide skeleton. The results obtained can be used to elucidate the structural and structural-functional organisation of casoxin molecules.
