NMR, ECD and molecular modelling demonstrated that octameric and nonameric sequences with multiple i-i+3 ABHC pair repulsions attain the beta-H18 helix in CD3OH. As a close relative of the alpha-helix, this helix type is stabilized by i-i+4 backbone H-bond interactions. The formation of the beta-H18 helix was found to be solvent-and concentration-dependent. Upon dilution, the beta-H18 -> beta-H12 helix transition was revealed by concentration-dependent ECD, DOSY-NMR and TEM measurements.}, keywords = {SECONDARY STRUCTURE; CIRCULAR-DICHROISM; SIDE-CHAINS; ACID OLIGOMERS; QUATERNARY STRUCTURE; ALPHA/BETA-PEPTIDES; STRUCTURAL-CHARACTERIZATION; AMPHIPATHIC PEPTIDES; MEMBRANE ENVIRONMENT; HETEROGENEOUS BACKBONES}, year = {2012}, eissn = {1477-0539}, pages = {255-259}, orcid-numbers = {Hetényi, Anasztázia/0000-0001-8080-6992; Martinek, Tamás/0000-0003-3168-8066; Szakonyi, Zsolt/0000-0003-2432-8409; Fülöp, Ferenc/0000-0003-1066-5287} }
