Bioactivity | Antho-RFamide is a neuropeptide isolated from the sea anemone (Anthopleura elegantissima). Antho-RFamide contains a specific carboxyl-terminal sequence, Arg-Phe-NH2, that plays an important role in neural signaling. Antho-RFamide can be used to study the function of neuropeptides in the nervous system of the simplest animals[1]. |
