Design, Synthesis, and Characterization of a Single-Chain Peptide Antagonist for the Relaxin-3 Receptor RXFP3
8 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
Relaxin-3 is a two-chain disulfide-rich peptide that is the ancestral member of the relaxin peptide family and, together with its G protein-coupled receptor RXFP3, is highly expressed in the brain. Strong evolutionary conservation of relaxin-3 suggests a critical biological function and recent studies have demonstrated modulation of sensory, neuroendocrine, metabolic, and cognitive systems. However, detailed...
