Abstract
NMR investigations of model protein of elastic fibre is presented. Detailed conformation of alpha-elastin polypeptide chain is discussed by comparison with the conformation of synthetic repeat peptides of elastin. Amino acid composition of alpha-elastin obtained from C-13 NMR spectra correlates with the results of sequencing of tropoelastin.Keywords
