Identification, sequence and expression of a crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) gene in the moth Manduca sexta.
The crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) gene was isolated from the tobacco hawkmoth Manduca sexta. The gene has an open reading frame of 125 amino acid residues containing a single, complete copy of CCAP. Analysis of the gene structure revealed three introns interrupting the coding region. A comparison of the M. sexta CCAP gene with the Drosophila melanogaster genome database reveals signifi...
متن کاملIdentification and developmental expression of mRNAs encoding crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) in decapod crustaceans.
Full-length cDNAs encoding crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) were isolated from several decapod (brachyuran and astacuran) crustaceans: the blue crab Callinectes sapidus, green shore crab Carcinus maenas, European lobster Homarus gamarus and calico crayfish Orconectes immunis. The cDNAs encode open reading frames of 143 (brachyurans) and 139-140 (astacurans) amino acids. Apart from the pre...

Crustacean cardioactive peptide is a modulator of oviduct contractions in Locusta migratoria.
Crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP) stimulates the contractions of locust oviducts. CCAP increased the basal tonus and increased the frequency and amplitude of phasic contractions, as well as the amplitude of neurally-evoked oviduct contractions in a dose-dependent manner. Oviducts from Vth instar larvae and adult locusts aged 10 days or less, were more sensitive to CCAP than oviducts from a...
متن کاملRegulation of the crab heartbeat by crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP): central and peripheral actions.
In regulating neurophysiological systems, neuromodulators exert multiple actions at multiple sites in such a way as to control the activity in an integrated manner. We are studying how this happens in a simple central pattern generator (CPG)-effector system, the heart of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus. The rhythmic contractions of this heart are neurogenic, driven by rhythmic motor patterns ...
