The complete amino acid sequence of an atrial natriuretic peptide from rat possessing both natriuretic and smooth muscle relaxant activity has been determined. The peptide has the structure H 2 N-R-1 S-S-C-F-G-G-R-I-D-10 R-I-G-A-Q-S-G-L-G-⎵ C-20 N-S-F-R-Y-25 C O O H and a calculated molecular weight of 2,706. The ring structure formed by the disulfide linkage between the two half-cystine residues was found essential for both the natriuretic activity and smooth muscle relaxant activity. The purified peptide caused 50% relaxation of norepinephrine (5× 10− 8 M) induced contraction of rabbit thoracic aorta at the concentration of 2× 10− 9 M and complete relaxation at 6× 10− 9 M.
