• Authentic FMRFamide is present in the polychaete Nereis virens.
• FMRFamide is endogenous to the Aplysia heart.
• 86: 792-808 Title: FMRFamide in molluscs FMRFamide is a small peptide used by the snail CNS tomodulate behaviour.
• The receptors appeared to be coupled to Gs because guanine nucleotides inhibit receptor binding and the stimulation of adenylate cyclase by FMRFamide is GTP-dependent.
• That FMRFamide is a neurosecretory product has still to be established, and its normal physiological role in molluscs has yet to be defined.
