Hi all,

I hope my following question is not that far from the scope of this
mailing list.

Does anybody know any reference where I could get the value of the pK_a
(or related pK_b) of the backbone nitrogen of proline residue
as a part of a peptide/protein (not the lone proline) ?

Any hint would be really appreciated.

Best,
