Human catestatin (CHGA352-372) Retro-Inverso synthetic sequences:

Wild-type Amino-SSMKLSFRARAYGFRGPGPQL-carboxyl
Inverso Amino-ssmklsfrarayGfrGpGpql-carboxyl
Retro Amino-LQPGPGRFGYARARFSLKMSS-carboxyl
Retro-inverso Amino-lqpGpGrfGyararfslkmss-carboxyl

Human catestatin (CHGA352-372) was synthesized in 4 isomeric versions: wild-type, inverso (all D-amino acids), retro (reversing sequence from amino→carboxyl, to carboxyl→amino), and retro-inverso (R-I, reversing sequence, as well as inverting chirality to all D-amino acids). Upper-case = L-amino acid (one-letter code), Lower-case = D-amino acid (except Gly/G, which has no chirality).
