There are three different "caps" allowed, two C-terminal caps and an
N-terminal cap. The two C-terminal caps are NME and NHE. NME is an
-NH-CH3 cap added to the end of the carbonyl of the last residue. NHE
is simply a -NH2. The N-terminal cap is ACE which is a CH3-CO- which
attaches to the nitrogen of the last residue (on the other side).
This seems to be the one you're looking for (since adding a carbonyl
to the C-terminus is silly and unphysical I would think, since there's
already a carbonyl there).
Hope this helps,
Jason
