[The structure-function organization of neurokinin A and neurokinin B molecules. II. Theoretical conformational analysis of neurokinin B].

The spatial structure of a neurokinin B molecule was investigated by the method of theoretical conformational analysis. The conformational analysis of this molecule indicated that the possible structure of neurokinin B under polar conditions may be described by five families of low-energy conformations possessing a conformationally relatively rigid C-terminal heptapeptide and variable N-terminal fragments.
