23. The static quenching fraction was significant (>3%) only for the shortest peptide (n = 1, Table 4) and therefore not analyzed in detail. A small population of conformations with donor-acceptor contact appears reasonable for the shortest peptide, because the attachment of donor and acceptor allows for some flexibility.

27. In contrast to the Gaussian model (ref 19), wormlike distributions are somewhat more "realistic", especially in the case of flexible peptides, because they do not extend to distances larger than that of the most extended conformation, and because the distributions become negligibly small at distances below the van der Waals limit of ca. 4 Å. When applying the wormlike chain model, one can further calculate an average distance, which is somewhat shorter than the contour lengths due to the asymmetric shape of this distribution. The difference is less than 0.2 Å, except for n = 4 in water (0.6 Å smaller) and n = 6 in water (1.3 Å).

45. n-Tyr-OH peptides, which show the onset for nucleation of the PPII helix only at n = 4, have been extensively employed in studies of long-range electron transfer in polyprolines (refs 39,41), which is also distance dependent and shows an interesting switch-over in mechanism for n = 1-9 (ref 43).

53. The population of the cis isomer depends on the amino acid type and may vary in dependence on the type of carboxy-terminal amino acid (refs 37, 52), and the charge status (refs 36,51). The presence of carboxy-terminal aromatic amino acids, prominently Tyr, and a deprotonated carboxy terminus favor the relative population of the cis form for the same reasons that they tend to disrupt the PPII helix structure of short polyprolines; see above.
