The conformation of cyclodecapeptide loloatin C with obvious antibiotic activity has been investigated in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol/sodium acetate buffer solution and then characterized by FT-IR, CD and NMR spectrum. The results of FT-IR show that there exists β-strand or β-turn secondary structure in the molecule. According to the CD spectrum, the helical turn is dominant but the β-turn structure also exists. Conformation of the whole molecule is probably a helical β-turn. The chemical shifts and coupling constants prove the existence of a β-structure in the regions of Val1, Orn2 and Leu3. NOESY data and temperature gradients of amide protons suggest that the molecular conformation is a dumbbell-like structure with the waist located between ornithyl (position 2) and D-phenylalanyl (position 7) and β-turn on both ends.
