Conformational properties of the hydroxyamyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residue have been deduced from a CD study of two copolypeptides containing hydroxypropyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residues. Mole fractions of hydroxyamyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residues were 0.17 and 0.45. Zimm–Bragg statistical weights for the hydroxyamyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residue in water are found to be similar to those determined by P.H. von Dreele, N. Lotan, V.S. Ananthan‐arayanan, R.H. andreatta, D. Poland, and H.A. Scheraga [(1971) Macromolecules 4 , 408–417] for the hydroxybutyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residue. Sodium dodecyl sulfate has only a marginal effect on the helix‐forming tendency of hydroxyamyl‐ L ‐glutaminyl residues in water.
