The Distribution and Physiological Effects of the Myoinhibiting Peptides in the Kissing Bug, Rhodnius Prolixus

The myoinhibiting peptides (MIPs), also designated as allatostatin-Bs or prothoracicostatic peptides in some insects, are neuropeptides that are characterized by two tryptophan (W) residues at the C-terminal, denoted as the W(X(6))Wamide motif.
