Abstract
A hitherto unreported human body narcissistic inversion which is an example of the rubber glove act has been uncovered from a Chinese acrobatic performance. This inversion is related to the unimolecular enantiomerizations of chiral molecules, a topological figure and arubber glove via chiral pathway. The possible mechanism of enantiomerization of an unknown cyclopolypetide based on this finding is suggested. The importance of chemical topology in biomolecules is stressed.
