A Conformationally Constrained Vasopressin Analog with Antidiuretic Antagonistic Activity

Abstract
Application of information derived from a 3-dimensional model of vasopressin bound to its antidiuretic receptor resulted in the design and synthesis of a bicyclic vasopressin analog, [5,8-cyclo(1-.beta.-mercaptopropionic acid, 2-phenylalanine, 5-aspartic acid, 8-lysine)]vasopressin. The analog acts as an antagonist of the antidiuretic activity of vasopressin.
