摘要:The tridecapeptide NH2-Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu-Arg-Arg-Gln-Phe-Lys-Val-Val-Thr-COOH has been purified from extracts of bovine posterior pituitary glands. This unique peptide, which has been given the name "rimorphin," is a major [Leu]enkephalin-containing peptide in all tissues examined that contain dynorphin and alpha-neo-endorphin. However, except for the initial hexapeptide sequence, it is structurally unrelated to the other two peptides.
