Abstract

The cholinergic motor neurons for the accessory radula closer (ARC) contain several neuropeptides that affect muscle contractions. In the present study, we have purified and sequenced a sixth ARC neuropeptide, using a combination of high pressure liquid chromatography and bioassays. This neuropeptide, Gly-Leu-Asp-Arg-Tyr-Gly-Phe-Val-Gly-Gly-Leu-amide, has been named buccalin B (BUCb) because it is significantly homologous to the previously characterized neuropeptide buccalin A. BUCb was found to be two-three times more potent than buccalin A in depressing motor neuron induced contractions.
