Notizen:
Self-association of substance P and its C-terminal partial peptide sequences was studied by CD, quasi-electric light scattering, and sedimentation experiments. CD spectra of these peptides are strongly influenced by self-association. They exhibit strong characteristic negative ellipticities, suggesting the formation of a presumably B-type ordered structure. The tendency to form multimers depends on chain length and constitution and has its maximum at the octapeptide (SP 8). The peptide multimers have a broad distribution of sizes in the range of 30- and 800-nm diameter. Subdivision of this distribution into two size classes gives mean diameters of 60-100 nm (predominating)/200-800 nm for substance P and 30-50 nm/200-800 nm for SP 8 multimers.
