The cDNAs encoding eclosion hormone (EH) of the silkworm, Bombyx mori, were isolated and sequenced. The results showed that the pre-EH molecule contains a 26-amino acid signal peptide and a 62-amino acid mature EH. The deduced amino acid sequence agreed with that previously determined by the peptide analysis. The presence of leucine residue at the carboxyl terminal of EH, which had not been detected directly by the peptide analysis, was proved. Primer extension and Northern hybridization analyses revealed that 0.9 kb mRNA is transcribed and it has a 66-nucleotide non-translated sequence at the 5'-end region. In situ hybridization showed that the EH gene is expressed in two pairs of nuerosecretory cells in the brain of 5th instar larva.
