In the course of isolation of alpha-melanotropin (alpha-MSH) from porcine pituitary extracts, a peptide with identical amino acid composition but slightly less polar properties compared to alpha-MSH was detected and isolated by partition chromatography. The new peptide was identified as N, O-diacetyl-Ser1-alpha-MSH by high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. N, O-diacetyl-Ser1-alpha-MSH was readily converted to alpha-MSH by incubation at pH 9.5. The O-acetyl analog of alpha-MSH was found to be as active as alpha-MSH in stimulating lipolysis in isolated rabbit adipocytes.
