[edit] Description
Corticotropin-lipotropin A precursor (Pro-opiomelanocortin A) (POMC A)[Contains: NPP 1; Corticotropin (Adrenocorticotropic hormone) (ACTH);Melanotropin alpha 1 (Alpha-MSH 1); Corticotropin-like intermediarypeptide 1 (CLIP-1); Lipotropin beta (Beta-LPH); Lipotropin gamma(Gamma-LPH); Melanotropin beta 1 (Beta-MSH 1); Beta-endorphin 1; Met-enkephalin].
[edit] Source Organism
Oncorhynchus mykiss (Rainbow trout) (Salmo gairdneri).
[edit] Taxomomy
Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Actinopterygii; Neopterygii; Teleostei; Euteleostei;Protacanthopterygii; Salmoniformes; Salmonidae; Oncorhynchus.
[edit] Subcellular Localization
Secreted.
[edit] Developmental Stage
Expressed in sexually active or inactive fish.
[edit] Similarity
Belongs to the POMC family.
[edit] Post translational Modification
Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues yield the different active peptides. Acetylation of beta-endorphin occurs in a tissue-specific manner.
