AMINO ACID COMPOSITION AND SEQUENCE OF DERMORPHIN, A NOVEL OPIATE‐LIKE PEPTIDE FROM THE SKIN OF PHYLLOMEDUSA SAUVAGEI
Abstract
Dermorphin, a heptapeptide with very potent opiate‐like activity, has been isolated from methanol extracts of the skin of the South American frog Phyllomedusa sauvagei. The amino acid sequence of the peptide is: H‐Tyr‐D‐Ala‐Phe‐Gly‐Tyr‐Pro‐Ser‐NH 2. Dermorphin presents striking differences from the known enkephalins; it offers a surprising example of a peptide from Vertebrata containing a D‐amino acid residue in its sequence.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
