In mammals the opioids Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin are derived from a common precursor, proenkephalin, and as a result these neuropeptides are co-localized in enkephalinergic neurons. The mammalian scheme for enkephalinergic networks is not uni

Procedures for performing cladistic analyses can provide powerful tools for understanding the evolution of neuropeptide and polypeptide hormone coding genes. These analyses can be done on either amino acid data sets or nucleotide data sets and can ut

In mammals, prodynorphin codes for three C-terminally extended forms of leu-enkephalin. This is not the case for the anuran amphibian, Bufo marinus. A combination of 3′RACE, RT-PCR and 5′RACE protocols was used to clone and characterize a prodyno

The polypeptide hormone precursor, proopiomelanocortin (POMC), was cloned and sequenced from the pituitary of the Australian lungfish, Neoceratodus forsteri, the only surviving species of the oldest extant lineage of lungfish. The Australian lungfish

A recent study on the pituitary of the sturgeon, Acipenser transmontanus, resulted in the cloning of a cDNA that codes for the prohormone, proopiomelanocortin (POMC). This cDNA is designated sturgeon POMC A. Subsequent analysis of the sturgeon pituit

The lungfishes (lobe-finned fish) occupy a unique position in vertebrate phylogeny, being regarded as the closest extant relatives to the tetrapods. The putative pituitary hormone somatolactin (SL) has hitherto been found only in teleost fishes, and

A degenerate primer, specific for the opioid core sequence YGGFM, was used to clone and sequence proopiomelanocortin (POMC) cDNAs from the brain of the African lungfish, Protopterus annectens, and from the brain of the western spadefoot toad, Spea mu

This minireview considers the possibility that there is a correlation between the slow rate of morphological change and speciation events that has been occurred within the lungfish lineage since the Permian period, and the apparent slow rate of diver

The detection of the prodynorphin gene in anuran amphibians and lungfishes may indicate that this gene arose as a result of the duplication of the proenkephalin gene early during the divergence of the Sarcopterygii, or that this gene may predate the

A distinctive feature of the pituitary hormone precursor, proopiomelanocortin (POMC), is the presence of multiple melanocortin core sequences (HFRW), and one copy of the opioid, beta-endorphin. In the older lineages of ray-finned fish (i.e., orders A
