Since the initial characterization of the cardioexcitatory peptide FMRFamide in the bivalve mollusk Macrocallista nimbosa, a great number of FMRFamide-like peptides (FLPs) has ibeen identified in mollusks. FLPs were initially isolated and molecularly characterized in model mollusks using biochemical...
