Proline, a unique amino acid whose polymer, polyproline II helix, and its analogues are involved in many biological processes: a review

Abstract Proline is a unique amino acid in that its side-chain is cyclised to the backbone, thus giving proline an exceptional rigidity and a considerably restricted conformational space. Polyproline forms two well-characterized helical structures: a left-handed polyproline helix (PPII) and a right-...
