Abstract
1. An FMRFamide-related decapeptide isolated from the anterior byssus retractor muscle (ABRM) of the bivalve mollusc, Mytilus edulis, was shown to have D-Leu as the second amino acid residue. 2. The excitatory effects of the peptide (Mytilus-FFRFamide) on the ABRM were not changed appreciably by substituting an L-Leu residue for the D-Leu residue.Entities:
