The solution conformation of peptides rich in the alpha, alpha-dialkylated amino acid Aib has proven to be a subtle problem, not because of helix/coil transitions, but rather because of alpha-helical/3(10)-helical competition. A special series of peptides containing 75% Aib has been synthesized that feature identical amino acid composition but differing sequences; they are sequence permutation isomers. Nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen-bonding studies reveal that there is a sequence permutation induced transition between the two alternative helical forms within this set. The implications for the design and conformational prediction of helical Aib-rich peptides are discussed.
