Medical Definition of Sigma peptide
1. A peptide with one end bonded to a point within the chain, usually by means of the disulfide group of a cystine residue, so that only one end of the peptide is free; so called since the peptide chain has then the rough shape of the Greek letter sigma; e.g., oxytocin. (05 Mar 2000)
