Biochemical and Immunohistochemical Studies of the Egg-Laying Hormone of Aplysia californica: Purification, Primary Structure, Neurosecretion and Morphological Distribution

<p>Egg-laying behavior in <i>Aplysia californica</i> can be triggered by the introduction of a neuropeptide, the Egg-Laying Hormone (ELH) into the circulation. ELH is synthesized by the neurosecretory bag cells of the abdominal ganglion and released when these neurons are induced t...
