Circular dichroism spectra of CAP18-MP(FV) and its mutants. Three solvents were used: H2O, 50% TFE and PBS, and peptide concentrations used were 0.1 mg ml−1. The spectra in the far UV were obtained as described in Methods. The α-helical concentration of peptides was calculated according to the CDSSTR method implemented in the DICHROWEB online server for protein secondary structure analyses from CD data (http://dichroweb.cryst.bbk.ac.uk).
