A peptide with N-terminal histidine and C-terminal isoleucine amide (PHI) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) are copackaged in myenteric neurones of the guinea pig ileum.

چکیده
When cytoplasmic extracts of the myenteric plexus of guinea pig ileum are submitted to centrifugal density gradient separation in a zonal rotor, conditions which separate storage particles containing substance P, somatostatin and VIP from each other, PHI copurifies with VIP. The two immunoreactivities cannot be separated by particle exclusion chromatography, which depends on size rather than density. It is concluded that the posttranslational cleavage of the propeptide or precursor to PHI and VIP occurs after packaging into these storage particles.

متن کاملShark rectal gland vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor: cloning, functional expression, and regulation of CFTR chloride channels.
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is a secretagogue that mediates chloride secretion in intestinal epithelia. We determined the relative potency of VIP and related peptides in the rectal gland of the elasmobranch dogfish shark and cloned and expressed the VIP receptor (sVIP-R) from this species. In the perfused rectal gland, VIP (5 nM) stimulated chloride secretion from 250 +/- 66 to 2,604 +/...

متن کاملStructure-activity studies of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide.
This report explores the potential side-chain functional groups required for interaction of the bronchodilator neuropeptide, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), with its receptor. The binding affinity and biological activity of native VIP have been found to be sensitive to the removal of amino- and carboxyl-terminal residues. This data suggests that elements within the entire primary sequence ...
