[bursal peptide I]; abbr. BP-1; BP-I. This bioactive peptide (ALPVVVII; Ala-Leu-Pro-Val-Val-Val-Ile-Ile) has been identified by Liu XD et al (2013) on the bursa of Fabricius, the central humoral immune organ unique to birds which plays important roles in B-lymphocyte differentiation. The peptide is one of several other bursal peptides and promotes colony-forming units for pre-B-cell formation and regulates B-cell differentiation. The peptide has immunomodulatory activities and influences Th1 cell and
