39. Val-5 also occurs in a hydrogen-bonded position but cannot be used because this residue is followed by proline in reference peptides 1 and 8 but not in equilibrating peptides 4-6. Proline profoundly influences the backbone conformation of the preceding residue: Wilmot, C. M.; Thornton, J. M. J. Mol. Biol. 1988, 203, 221.
