Endorphins

Just in case anyone is still following this! Simplify your google search: <endorphin structure> In 1981 Pierre Nicholas, et. al. published a couple of papers on tertiary structure of camel beta-endorphin (CBE). They reported changes in the UV spectra of intact versus digested CBE (this is call...

I don’t quite know what you’re asking. The endorphins or enkephalins are small peptides. I wouldn’t expect much secondary or tertiary structure to be present. The one crystal structure that I’ve seen is an extended peptide with no additional secondary ...

hello, i'm doing a project on endorphins and have had a lot of trouble finding specific information on the levels of molecular structure (primary, secondary etc..) even when i've narrowed down my searches to specific alpha-,beta-,gamma- ...

... But peptides are more direct in their action and properties. They may target specific functions. We have an example of small peptides like endorphins or enkephalins. Those peptides are approximately 30 amino acids long, and it is about 10 to 20 times [fewer] amino acids than in an average ...
