The most challenging aspect was finding an appropriate large peptide and receptor.  The most promising was a yeast mating hormone (used in yeast) but we concluded that the processing of this small peptide would likely by affected by it's fusion to other hormones and abandoned the idea. If this could be overcome we believe the project might have a lot  of potential
