Abstract: Human angiotensin (AngⅡ) was obtained by solid phase method. Its solution conformations in D2Oand DMSOd6 were examined by 2D NMRtechnique. The dihedral angle constraint, distance constraint, hydrogen bond constraint were made based on coupling constants, ROE effect, temperature coefficient of chemical shifts. It is concluded that Ang Ⅱ exists in D2Oand DMSOd6 as closed similar conformations that is random coil with negligible content of α helix, 310 helix, β turns, γ turns, parallel and antiparallel β sheet. The conformation in D2Owas not sensitive to temperature.

Key words: AngⅡ, Solid phase peptide synthesis, 2D NMR, Solution conformation of peptide
