초록

A new biologically active peptide with structural similarity to neuromedin N (NMN) has been isolated from extracts of visceral tissue of the African lungfish, Protopterus dolloi, using the rectum of the quail as the bioassay system. The primary structure of NMN-related peptide was established as Lys-Ala-Pro-Tyr-Ile-Leu-OH ([$Ala_2$]-NMN) and contained one substitution ($Ala_2\rightarrow$Ile) compared with the porcine NMN. [$Ala_2$]-NMN was found to have an excitatory effect on rectal muscle tissues of quail (Coturnix japonica), newt (Cynops pyrrhogaster) and black bass (Micropterus sulmoides). The threshold concentration of [Ala2]-NMN for contraction of C. japonica muscle was found to be approximately $10^-11$M. [$Ala_2$]-NMN showed contractile activities in the following order: C. japonica > C. pyrrhogaster > M. sulmoides. The identification of [Ala2]-NMN provides evidence that NMN family, hitherto confined to mammals, has a widespread occurrence in lungfish.
