摘要：Cis/trans isomerization of peptide C-N bonds is involved in the configurational changes and are definitive for the bioactivity of peptides and proteins. The basic molecular character and origin of the restricted rotation of the peptide C-N bonds are briefly introduced, as well as the methods used for study of the cis/trans isomerization, such as the chymotrypsin-coupled assay, pH-mediated solvent jump, and UV-resonance Raman spectroscopy, etc. The control of the peptide bond configuration with photoresponsive (photochromic) groups such as azobenzene or thioamide bonds is also reviewed.
