NG peptides are ligands for the S. purpuratus NPS/CCAP-type receptor. Dose–response curves for Ca2+ responses evoked by the NG peptides NGFFFamide (S. purpuratus), NGFFYamide (A. rubens) and NGIWYamide (A. japonicus) in CHO-K1 cells expressing the S. purpuratus NPS/CCAP-type receptor. Each point (±s.e.m.) represents mean values from at least two independent experiments performed in at least triplicate. Dose–response data are shown as relative (%) to the highest value (100% activation) after normalization to the maximum Ca2+ response. The log EC50 values (±s.e.m.) are NGFFFamide: −9.38 ± 0.09; NGFFYamide: −8.25 ± 0.04; NGIWYamide: −6.44 ± 0.04.
