Isolation and sequence of rat peptide YY and neuropeptide Y. 1988

Rat peptide YY and rat neuropeptide Y have been isolated in parallel from colon and brain extracts respectively, using salt fractionation, gel filtration chromatography, cation-exchange HPLC, and reverse phase phenyl-silica HPLC. Immunoreactivity was identified using a combination of 3 NPY immunoassays which exhibit differing cross-reactivities for PYY (90%, less than 0.01% and 30% respectively). The yield at the final purification step was 1.2 nmol rPYY and 0.5 nmol rNPY. Half of each purified peptide was subjected to complete microsequence analysis. This showed that while rat NPY was structurally identical to human NPY, the sequence of PYY from rat colon was the same as porcine PYY isolated from extracts of duodenum.

D009478 Neuropeptide Y A 36-amino acid peptide present in many organs and in many sympathetic noradrenergic neurons. It has vasoconstrictor and natriuretic activity and regulates local blood flow, glandular secretion, and smooth muscle activity. The peptide also stimulates feeding and drinking behavior and influences secretion of pituitary hormones.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
