NOVEL PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE PEPTIDES AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

A process for constructing novel tachykinin-related peptides and the tachykinin-related peptides based on this process. This process comprises converting the C-terminal amino acid residue of tachykinin or a tachykinin-related peptide into Met to give a tachykinin-related peptide acting on vertebrates, while converting the C-terminal amino acid residue thereof into Arg to give a tachykinin-related peptide acting on invertebrates.
