CNMa
CNMamide (CNMa) is a cyclic neuropeptide identified by of Drosophila melanogaster protein sequences and named after its C-terminal ending motif. A gene encoding CNMa was found in most arthropods and comparison among the precursor sequences of several representative species revealed high conservation, particularly in the region of the predicted mature peptide. Two conserved cysteine residues enveloping four amino acids form a disulfide bond and were shown to be important for binding of the peptide to its receptor. Expression of CNMa was confirmed in the larval and adult brain of D. melanogaster but the function of the peptide has not been elucidated yet.
