Abstract

By the method of the theoretic conformational analysis the conformational capabilities of the soymorphin-6 (Tyr1-Pro2-Phe3-Val4-Val5-Asn6-NH2) molecule were studied. The potential energy of this molecule is given as the sum of nonvalent, electrostatic and torsional interactions and the energy of hydrogen bonds. Low-energy conformations of the soymorphin-6 molecule, the values of the dihedral angles of the main and side chains of amino acid residues that make up the molecules are found, the energy of intra- and inter-residual interactions is estimated. It is shown that the spatial structure of the soymorphin-6 molecule can be represented by eight conformations. The results obtained can be used to study the structure and structural-functional organization of the soymorphin molecules.
