Characterization of a novel vasopressin/oxytocin superfamily peptide and its receptor from an ascidian, Ciona intestinalis

The vasopressin (VP)/oxytocin (OT) superfamily peptides are one of the most widely distributed neuropeptides and/or neurohypophysial hormones, but have ever not been characterized from any deuterostome invertebrates including protochordates, ascidians. In the present study, we show the identificatio...
