Peptide YY is a short (36 amino acid) protein released by cells in the ileum and colon in response to feeding. It is also known as PYY, Peptide Tyrosine...
Peptide YY(3-36) , a Y2R agonist, is released from the gastrointestinal tract postprandially in proportion to the calorie content of a meal. PYY(3-36) also...
NPY is an abundant neuropeptide regulating a wide range of physiologic activities. Another member of the NPY family, PYY, is an inhibitory hormone secreted...
Pregnancy zone protein (PZP), one of the major pregnancy-associated plasma proteins, was described by Smithies (1959) who used zone-electrophoresis in starch...
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with...
QDPR (quinoid dihydropteridine reductase) is part of the pathway that recycles a substance called tetrahydrobiopterin, also known as BH4. Tetrahydrobiopterin...
QKI belongs to a family of RNA-binding proteins called STAR proteins for Signal Transduction and Activation of RNA. They have an HNRNPK homology (KH) domain...
QPCT encodes human pituitary glutaminyl cyclase, which is responsible for the presence of pyroglutamyl residues in many neuroendocrine peptides. The amino...
QPCTL, also termed Iso-glutaminyl cyclase catalyzes the intramolecular cyclization of N-terminal glutamine residues into pyroglutamic acid with liberation of...
Quinolinate is an intermediate in the de novo synthesis pathway of NAD from tryptophan and acts as a potent endogenous excitotoxin through hyperstimulation...
P518 functions as a high-affinity ligand of GPR103. Both GPR103 and P518 precursor mRNA exhibited highest expression in brain.The 43-amino acid QRFP peptide,...
GPR103 shares between 35% and 38% sequence identity in the transmembrane regions with various peptide receptors, including neuropeptide FF2, neuropeptide Y2,...
