[edit] Description
Corticotropin-lipotropin precursor (Pro-opiomelanocortin) (POMC)[Contains: NPP; Gamma-melanotropin-like segment; Corticotropin(Adrenocorticotropic hormone) (ACTH); Melanotropin alpha (Alpha-MSH);Corticotropin-like intermediary peptide (CLIP); Melanotropin beta(Beta-MSH); Beta-endorphin; Met-enkephalin].
[edit] Source Organism
Acipenser transmontanus (White sturgeon).
[edit] Taxomomy
Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Actinopterygii; Chondrostei; Acipenseriformes; Acipenseridae;Acipenser.
[edit] Subcellular Localization
[edit] Developmental Stage
[edit] Similarity
Belongs to the POMC family.
[edit] Post translational Modification
Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues yield the different active peptides.
[edit] Function
Precursor protein for pituitary hormones that regulate stress and environmental adaptation
