Preparathyroid hormone

Parathyroid hormone is a single-chain polypeptide composed of 84 amino acids. It has a molecular weight of 9500 and lacks an intrachain disnlhde linkage. Parathyroid hormone is produced by means of two sequential enzymic cleavages from a larger precursor polypeptide, preparathyroid hormone. [Pg.547]

The complete sequence of the human parathyroid hormone (PTHh) [134] was elucidated in 1978 and was soon confirmed by the determination of the nucleotide sequence of its preurcursor, the preparathyroid hormone [135], and also by total synthesis (Sakakibara et al.) [136]. The chain of 84 amino acid residues... [Pg.169]
