Adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) of sphingid Lepidoptera, including the identification of a second M. sexta AKH

Original language description

The adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) from the corpora cardiaca (CC) of representative species from all three subfamilies of the Sphingidae (hawkmoths) were investigated using MALDI-TOF and LC?ESI MS. In addition to larvae and adults of M. sexta (subfamily: Sphinginae), adults from the following subfamilies were examined: Macroglossinae (large elephant hawkmoth, Deilephila elpenor), Smerinthinae (poplar hawkmoth, Laothoe populi and eyed hawkmoth, Smerinthus ocellata), and Sphinginae (death?s head hawkmoth, Acherontia atropos). All moths have the nonapeptide Manse-AKH (pELTFTSSGWamide) in their CC, together with a second AKH, which is identical in all species examined. It is a novel decapeptide AKH of pELTFSSGWGQamide (Manse-AKH-II). Sequence confirmation was obtained with synthetic Manse-AKH-II and with the native peptide. Manse-AKH-II has significant lipid-mobilizing activity. The potential implications of a second AKH are discussed in relation to putative receptor(s).
