Hardcover. Editor(s): Parker, Steven L. Num Pages: 151 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: PSBC. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 238 x 161 x 17. Weight in Grams: 434.
This book presents a broad summary of current knowledge concerning the structure and biochemistry of neuropeptide Y in relation to its role in feeding and interactions with receptors, transducers, effectors and channels that can also connect to food intake. The very high conservation of NPY sequence indicates its critical importance in basal metabolic regulation. Mutations connecting to NPY are virtually absent, and those affecting the Y1 and Y2 receptors are very few. From the evidence presented across vertebrate classes, NPY appears mainly as metabotropic driver via the Y1 group of receptors, and its negative metabotropicity through the Y2 receptor is ...
