Abstract
Oligopeptides which function as hormones, neurotransmitters, or paracrine modulators are generally synthesized as longer precursors which may comprise other biologically active peptides and which, in analogy to the similarly constructed viral polyproteins, have been termed cellular polyproteins (Fig. 1, p. 34; Koch and Richter 1980, Herbert 1981).
