Locustatachykinin I (TFA)

• Description:

  Locustatachykinin I TFA is a insect tachykinin-related peptide isolated from Locusta migratoria. Locustatachykinin I TFA exhibits sequence homologies with the vertebrate tachykinins. In Lacanobia, Locustatachykinin I TFA is also a substrate for a deamidase[1][2].
