Abstract
⺠NdWFamide is a d-Trp-containing cardioexcitatory tripeptide of Aplysia. ⺠We have cloned two distinct precursor genes of the peptide. ⺠Both of the predicted precursor (NWF90/NWF87) encoded a single copy of NdWFamide. ⺠Expression of NWF90 gene is dominant over NWF87 gene in the abdominal ganglia.
