Peptide source & Food-borne protein(s) search

Classification	Animal, Marine
Organism/Source	Horseshoe crab Limulus polyphemus
Precursor protein	Brains (including both the protocerebrum and the circumesophageal ring)
Residue position	N.D
Precursor protein(s) search	No matching precursor protein found
Link-research Inductive analysis	There are no literature reports on the discovery of this sequence in other food-source proteins.

Biological/Functional activity & target protein

Neuropeptide activity	Synthetic GHSLLHFamide produced a dose-dependent decrease in beat amplitude; the threshold was 4 X 10^-9 mol/l. Higher concentrations of GHSLLHFamide (from 2 X 10^-8 mol/1) also decreased heart rate.
Specific target protein(s)	N.D

Taste properties & Structure

Bitterness

Literature report	N.D
Bitter prediction tools	Non-bitter taste ^prediction

Preparation method

Mode of preparation	Extraction
Enzyme(s)/starter culture	Brains (including both the protocerebrum and the circumesophageal ring) were collected from horseshoe crabs over several months as the animals were used for visual system studies. The acetone extracts were decanted from the pieces of tissue, then clarified by centrifugation, and reduced in volume on a rotary evaporator.
