Abstract
Partial molar heat capacities of the three tripeptides glycylglycylgly cine, glycyl-L-alanylglycine and glycyl-DL-threonylglycine in aqueous solution at the temperatures 50, 75, 100 and 125 degrees C have been d etermined using differential flow calorimetry. The results have been u sed to estimate the contributions to the partial molar heat capacities of peptides of the alanyl and threonyl side-chains. These side-chain contributions are compared with those reported in the literature.
