Pre-proopiomelanocortin

Fig. 331. Amino acid sequence of pre-proopiomelanocortin and derived peptide hormones The amino acid residues 1-20 form a typical signal sequence, which is necesssary for transfer of the protein from plasm to the extraplasmic space (lumen of ER, cf. A 3.2) It is later on split off. The proopiomelanocortin formed is the precursor of the following peptide hormones (corticotropin, amino acids 132-170) r -MSH (A-melanotropin, amino acids 132-144)...
