Notes:
Limited conformational constraints have been introduced in the sequence of the C-terminal fragment of the peptide neurotransmitter neurokinin A by N-methylation of individual peptide bonds, and the biological activities of the peptides thus obtained were evaluated in order to assess the effect of such conformational constraint on receptor selectivity. The analogue methylated in position 7 shows enhanced selectivity toward NK-1 receptor.
