Uperolein, a physalaemin-like endecapeptide, has been shown to be selective for Neurokinin 1 receptor. As a first step towards understanding the structure-activity relationship, we report the membrane-induced structure of Uperolein with the aid of circular dichroism and 2D (1)H NMR

Physalaemin (PHY), a non-mammalian tachykinin, binds selectively to neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor with high affinity. Both the aqueous and lipid-induced conformations of PHY have been studied using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. These data show that in water PHY prefers to

The effects of the non-mammalian tachykinin physalaemin were studied on the short circuit current (SCC) and on both influx (Ji) and outflux (Jo) of 36Cl- and 22Na+ across the isolated skin of Rana esculenta. Physalaemin, added to the internal bathing
