Figure 2 Molecular biology of vasoactive intestinal peptide. A: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is transcribed from a gene consisting of 7 exons and translated into a 170 amino acid prepropeptide that produces at least two biologically active peptides as shown; B: The amino acid comparison between pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP)27 and VIP with bold letters representing identical amino acids between peptides, and asterisks indicating amino acid differences.
