Acid extracts of rat hypothalamus and atrium were prepared by a procedure previously shown to minimize proteolytic degradation of peptides. The majority of the immunoactive material in the atrial extracts had a molecular weight of approximately 9,000 …

The subcellular site of the further processing (NH2-terminal acetylation and COOH-terminal proteolysis) of beta-endorphin-sized molecules in the rat intermediate pituitary has been studied. Rat intermediate pituitary primary cultures that had been …
