12. A minor monomeric oxidation side product was detected by mass spectrometric analysis of the crude oxidation mixture but was not isolated or further characterized. This product likely contains an iraframolecular Cysl-Cys7 disulfide linkage.
13. Hydrogen-bonding complementarity between domains may explain the exclusive formation of the antiparallel isomer; a parallel isomer could not form a full complement of interdomain hydrogen bonds while maintaining intradomain hydrogen bonds.
14. NMR studies of cyclic peptide lb (the domain building block) were not performed because the peptide oxidizes rapidly in aqueous solutions.

17. The sample was lyophilized with D2O twice before NMR studies to attenuate resonances associated with water and exchangeable protons.
