An octacosapeptide with the entire sequence proposed for the newly isolated vasoactive intestinal polypeptide was synthesized and had the expected biological properties. Synthetic peptides corresponding to the C-terminal hendeca-, tetradeca-, pentadeca-, and docosapeptide sequences of the vasoactive intestinal polypeptide showed activities that increased with increasing chain length.
