In the course of systematic identification of peptide signaling molecules combined with the expressed sequence tag database fromHydra, we have identified a novel neuropeptide family that consists of two members with FRamide at the C-terminus; FRamide-1 (IPTGTLIFRamide) and FR-amide-2 (APGSLLFRamide). | ễFEBS Journal A novel neuropeptide FRamide family identified by a peptidomic approach in Hydra magnipapillata Eisuke Hayakawa1 Toshio Takahashi2 Chiemi Nishimiya-Fujisawa1 and Toshitaka Fujisawa1 1 Department of DevelopmentalGenetics National institute of Genetics Mishima Shizuoka Japan 2 Suntory Institute for Bioorganic Research Shimamoto-cho Osaka Japan Keywords cnidaria FRamide Hydra muscle contraction neuropeptide Correspondence T.

The precursor sequence deduced from cDNA contained a single copy each of FRamide-1 and FRamide-2 precursor sequences. Expression analysis by whole-mount in situ hybridization showed that the gene was expressed in a subpopulation of neurons that were distributed throughout the body from tentacles to basal disk. Double in situ hybridization analysis showed that the expressing cell population was further subdivided into one population consisting of neurons expressing both the FRamide and Hym176 neuropeptide genes and the other consisting of neurons expressing only the FRamide gene. FRamide-1 evoked elongation of the body column of epithelial Hydra that was composed of epithelial cells and gland cells but lacked all the cells in the interstitial stem cell lineage including neurons. In contrast FRamide-2 evoked body column contraction. These results suggest
