Abstract

Six analogues of the antiarrhythmic peptide (Gly-Pro-Hyp-Gly-Ala-Gly), in which Hyp at position 3 has been replaced with other amino acids such as Gly, Ala, D-Ala, Ser, Thr and Lys have been synthesized. The compounds were obtained by a stepwise peptide coupling strategy in solution. A relationship between antiarrhythmic activities and CD spectra has been discussed.
