This is a generic term for various neuropeptides identified in a number of invertebrates (mainly gastropods) (Veenstra, 2010; Adamson et al, 2015; Conzelmann et al, 2011; Hou et al, 2015), Their biological role is largely unknown. Elevenin was first identified as a neuropeptide in the gastropod mollusk Aplysia californica (Taussig et al, 1984; for elevenin sequences from various species see also: Veenstra, 2014).
L11 elevenin neuropeptide has been identified in the marine annelid Platynereis dumerilii and shown to affect larval locomotion by increasing ciliary beat frequency (in a similar fashion to cAMP) (Conzelmann et al., 2011).
