Poly(γ-benzyl-d-l-glutamate) with strict alternation of l and d residues is found to exist, in addition to the αDL and πDL4.4 helical structures already described (Heitz et al., 1975a), in four more helical structures. Models based on double helices made of antiparallel strands are proposed for all four structures, based on infrared, X-ray and electron diffraction data. These double helices are, like the single-stranded πDL helices, specific to polypeptides with a strict stereosequence of alternating l and d residues. The diameter of the helical core of three of these helices appears to depend on the dimensions of the solvent molecules. Conformational angles (located in the β regions) and atomic co-ordinates determined by conformational energy analysis are given for the four structures. Experimental conditions used to obtain these helices, and to induce transconformations between the various helical structures of PBd-lG are described. The present investigations on PBd-lG help to make more precise the structure and geometry of models proposed (Veatch et al., 1974) for the antibiotic gramicidin A.
