Bioactivity Levitide is a neurohormone-like peptide, can be isolated from skin secretions of the South African frog Xenopus laevis. Levitide comes from preprolevitide, is 88 residues long and contains contains the levitide peptide at the C terminus (Glu-Gly-Met-Ile-Gly-Thr-Leu-Thr-Ser-Lys-Arg-Ile-Lys-Gln-NH2) and the putative signal sequence at the N terminus[1].
Invitro The preprolevitide, also known as levitide precursor, exhibits a striking nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology with the precursor of xenopsin. Xenopsin is a octapeptide and also encodes a 25-residue amphipathic peptide that is released by processing at a single arginine residue[1].
