2014, EuPA Open ProteomicsCitation Excerpt :After several rounds of chromatographic separations, the active compound could be purified and sequence identity was revealed by Edman degradation. In doing so, 12 FLP peptides could be identified by radioimmunological screening of peptide extracts from C. elegans [35–40]. Using similar approaches, 20 FLP peptides could be isolated from the larger nematode Ascaris suum where they are annotated as AF peptides [41–44].

2005, Biochemical and Biophysical Research CommunicationsCitation Excerpt :Furthermore, non-conventional cleavages have been shown to exist in other invertebrates. Although the genomic sequence information has been available from 1998 and approximately 250 neuropeptides have been predicted to be present in C. elegans, only 12 FaRPs from C. elegans have been isolated and sequenced until now, due to the large efforts needed for tissue collection and purification strategies [5–10]. By using a high throughput peptidomics approach, based on nanoscale liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry, we could identify 28 predicted FaRPs, of which 21 were never sequenced before.
