Description for Regulatory Peptides and Cognate Receptors
Hardback. Since the 1980s, our knowledge of regulatory peptides and their cognate receptors has greatly increased. This text discusses various peptide receptor systems, for example CRF, somatostatin, TRH, opioid peptides and vasopressin, and strategies for uncovering new peptides are examined. Editor(s): Richter, Dietmar. Series: Results and Problems in Cell Differentiation. Num Pages: 366 pages, 22 black & white illustrations, 11 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PSBC; PSF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22. Weight in Grams: 806.
In the last two decades, our knowledge on regulatory peptides and their cognate receptors, most of which are members of the seven transmembrane receptor families, has increased enormously. Regulatory peptides are small proteins which, besides their hormonal functions in regulating cellular metabolism in various tissues, may also act as neurotransmitters, and thus they often carry the prefix "neuro". Many of the cognate receptors involved in transducing the peptidergic signal across the cell membrane via a family of G proteins exist in multiple forms, the number of which frequently exceeds that of the corresponding peptide ligands. In this book, various peptide-receptor ... Read more
