abbr. CP2. Cerebral Peptide 2 is a peptide of 41 amino acids (FDFGFAGLDTYDAIHRALEQPARGTSNSGSGYNMLMKMQRH) with an amidated carboxyterminus from the sea slug Aplysia californica. It does not appear to be a member of any previously identified peptide family (Phares et al, 1996). Cerebral Peptide 2 is a modulatory neuropeptide synthesized predominantly in the cerebral ganglia and transported to other regions of the central nervous system. Cloning of the cDNA reveals a precursor encoding a single copy of the neuropeptide. The precursor may give rise to additional bioactive neuropeptides, which have been found in neuronal somata and nerves (Vilim et al (2001).
