ABSTRACT:
Single-chain analogs of the naturally occurring two-chain peptide monellin retain the sweetening properties of the natural protein and are stable under conditions which would otherwise destabilize the native peptide. A covalent linkage joins peptides corresponding to portions of the A and B chains of the naturally occurring protein.
