  • Title: Dromyosuppressin and drosulfakinin, two structurally related Drosophila neuropeptides, are uniquely expressed in the adult central nervous system.
    Author: Nichols R, McCormick J, Lim I.
    Journal: Ann N Y Acad Sci; 1997 Apr 24; 814():315-8. PubMed ID: 9160985.
    Abstract:
    Drosophila myosuppressin (TDVDHVFLRFamide; DMS) and sulfakinin (FDDYGHMRFamide; DSK) have similar C-terminal structures. To determine the neuronal expression patterns of these structurally related peptides, we have generated DMS- and DSK-specific antisera to multiple antigenic peptides and performed double-label immunochemistry with antisera raised on different animals of the same species host animal. Our data indicate that DMS and DSK staining patterns in the adult central nervous system are unique and nonoverlapping.
