Research Abstract |
Bioactive peptides play crucial roles in complex homeostasis regulatory systems in living organisms. Thus, it is essential to identify novel bioactive peptides and analyze their physiological functions to elucidate the homeostasis regulatory systems. In this study, we tried to isolate new bioactive peptides using their frequently observed structural characteristic, C-terminal amidation, as a hallmark. We developed a method for condensation of C-terminally amidated peptides from naturally occurring peptide mixtures, though a novel bioactive peptide was not identified.
