Abstract
The ionization state of Leu-enkephalin in DMSO and MeCN/DMSO (4/1) solution was studied by the combined use of 17O NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. After lyophilization of an aqueous solution at nearly neutral pH, Leu-enkephalin essentially exists in the uncharged state in MeCN/DMSO (4/1) solution. In pure DMSO, only 40% of the Leu-enkephalin molecules are in the zwitterionic state under the same conditions.Entities:
