Proopiocortin is a precursor protein that contains the structures of ACTH, LPH, MSH, and EP (l-3). l The elucidation of the entire primary structure of bovine proopiocortin revealed that the prohormone has repeating structural units of common MSH core, tetrapeptide His-Phe-Arg-Trp, and that the peptide hormones are divided by pairs of basic amino acid residues where proteolytic processing takes place (4). The third MSH core, termed r-MSH, is located in the cryptic N-terminal portion of the precursor (NPP). It is generally accepted that proopiocortin is synthesized in both the corticotroph of the pars distalis and the melanotroph of the pars intermedia. There is also now substantial evidence that the maturation processes of the precursor protein in the two lobes are different (5, 6).In contrast to the striking development of the knowledge of proopiocortin and the related hormones in mammalian species, only little is known about these substances in the lower vertebrates. The biosynthesis of similar precursor molecules in the frog, an amphibian, has been demonstrated (‘7-9). Although there is no direct evidence for the presence of a precursor protein in fish, several neurointermediate lobe peptides have been identified in chum salmon, a teleost (lo-17), and the dogfish, an elasmobranch (18-22). Therefore, the common
