Also disclosed are DNA sequences encoding for synthetic PIFs, a PIF fusion peptide made of a PIF and one or more fusion tags, methods of treatment using the transfected cells that express a PIF, an R-I-K-P peptide, compositions containing the R-I-K-P peptide, and methods of identifying a compound that binds to an active site of an WXWX2X3X4REWFX5 X6X7W receptor, wherein each X can be any amino acid. 67
