DescriptionELH type 1 precursor [Cleaved into- - Alpha-bag cell peptide (Alpha-BCP);Beta-bag cell peptide (Beta-BCP); Gamma-bag cell peptide (Gamma-BCP);Egg-laying hormone (ELH); Acidic peptide].
OrganismAplysia parvula
TxonomyEukaryota; Metazoa; Mollusca; Gastropoda; Orthogastropoda;Apogastropoda; Heterobranchia; Euthyneura; Opisthobranchia; Anaspidea;Aplysioidea; Aplysiidae; Aplysia.
Subcellular LocationSecreted
Developmental StageNA
SimilarityBelongs to the molluscan ELH family.
Tissue SpecificityBag cell neurons
Post Translational ModificationNA
FunctionELH acts as a neurotransmitter locally; upon neurons of the abdominal ganglion and as a hormone by diffusing into the circulating hemolymph and modulating the activity of other organs. It specifically causes contraction of smooth muscle in the ovotestis and expulsion of the egg string
