TLDR
The precursors of all these cockroach species are similar in size, and the organization of the ASTs that they contain (there are 13 or 14 depending on the species) have been conserved.

Neuropeptides in the nervous system of Drosophila and other insects: multiple roles as neuromodulators and neurohormones.

TL;DR: Drosophila, in spite of its small size, is now emerging as a very favorable organism for the studies of neuropeptide function due to the arsenal of molecular genetics methods available.

The juvenile hormones: historical facts and speculations on future research directions.

TL;DR: Hopes remain that JH can be used as a probe to ultimately solve basic questions in development and to offer promise of immortal youth to the aged.

Mono- and dibasic proteolytic cleavage sites in insect neuroendocrine peptide precursors.

TL;DR: Rules to predict proteolytic cleavage sites at basic amino acids in insect neuropeptide precursors are established and it is likely that, as in vertebrates, ambiguous processing sites exist to allow differential cleavage of the same precursor by different convertases and it seems possible that the precursor of allatostatins and PBAN are differentially cleaved in different cell types.

Distinguishing Homologous From Analogous Proteins

TL;DR: This work provides a means by which it is possible to determine whether two groups of related proteins have a common ancestor or are of independent origin, and how many nucleotide positions must differ in the genes encoding the two presumptively homologous proteins.
