The accessory radula closer (ARC) buccal muscle motor neuron B16 is buccalin-immunoreactive and it synthesizes a peptide with chromatographic properties identical to those of buccalin. Terminal varicosities in the ARC muscle are buccalin-immunoreactive, and buccalin reduces muscle contractions evoked by stimulation of neuron B16, probably by a presynaptic action.
