Abstract
⺠First structural analysis of des-acyl ghrelin in HFA-water solutions. ⺠CD, CSI and temperature coefficients support the occurrence of structured elements. ⺠NMR 3D structure shows a stable α-helix between Pro-7 and Gln-14. ⺠Des-acyl ghrelin and obestatin show similar α-helical structural features. ⺠Des-acyl ghrelin and obestatin may interact with the same competent receptor.
