Identification, Synthesis, Conformation and Activity of an Insulin-like Peptide from a Sea Anemone

The role of insulin and insulin-like peptides (ILPs) in vertebrate animals is well studied. Numerous ILPs are also found in invertebrates, although there is uncertainty as to the function and role of many of these peptides. We have identified transcripts with similarity to the insulin family in the...
