## Abstract Several algesic agents including bradykinin and tachykinin have been identified from skin secretions of amphibians. They may act in defensive roles against aggressors. In this study, a novel peptide named Amolos with an amino acid sequence of FLPIVGAKL and isolated from skin secretion o
## Abstract A bradykininβlike peptide has been isolated from the skin secretions of the frog __Rana nigrovittata__. This peptide was named ranakininβN. Its primary structure, RAEAVPPGFTPFR, was determined by Edman degradation and mass spectrometry. It is structurally related to bradykininβlike pept
