We have previously reported the existence of a peptide factor in the adrenal medulla which inhibits aldosterone secretion in cultured bovine zona glomerulosa cells. The acid extracts of chromaffin granules from bovine adrenal medulla were purified by a four step high performance liquid chromatography procedure. Two active fractions exhibited sequence homology with bovine atrial natriuretic factor ANF (Ser99-Tyr126) and its polypeptide precursor (Asn1-Tyr126). The occurrence of both precursor and mature forms of ANF within chromaffin granules indicates the endogenous character of ANF in the adrenal medulla and suggests the potential usefulness of cultured adrenal chromaffin cells for investigating the synthesis, maturation and secretion of atrial peptides.
