Abstract

A model treatment ofβ-structural polypeptides with four cysteine residues in a molecule allows us to formulate simple rules of selecting the structures closest to the preferable one and to reveal the most probable positions of SS-bridges. The applicability of this model approach is demonstrated on several examples of peptides with experimentally defined structures.
