These are published properties of the molecule, given for identification. Values we cannot confirm are omitted rather than estimated. What these terms mean.
What this compound is
Ten residues beginning with pyroglutamate, a glutamate whose side chain has closed back onto its own backbone nitrogen to make a five-membered ring. That ring is drawn here. It is the natural start of this whole family and it is what protects that end of the chain.
Sequence
2HWSYGLRPG
This sequence uses notation outside the standard twenty one-letter codes — a lowercase letter marks a D-amino acid, and other symbols mark modified or non-standard residues. It is reproduced exactly as published rather than normalised, and no residue composition is derived from it.
