摘要：

A new lipophilic peptide was isolated from the MeOH-CH2Cl2 extract of adult heads of the male silkworm, Bombyx mori, by monitoring the diapause egg-inducing activity. Partial amino acid sequencing (1-55) revealed this peptide to be a unique type having a high content of lipophilic amino acids, Val, Ala, and Pro, and many repeating sequences, The compound was thus named VAP peptide.
