Small folded polypeptide motifs represented highly simplified systems for theoretical and experimental studies on protein structure and folding. We have recently reported the design and characterization of a metal-ion-independent 23-residue peptide with a beta beta alpha structure (BBA1), based on the zinc finger domains. To understand better the determinants of structure for this small peptide, we investigated the conformational role of the synthetic residue 3-(1, 10-phenanthrol-2-yl)-L-alanine (Fen) in BBA1.
