Abstract excerpt
The structure of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) can be divided into three main domains: an NH2-terminal domain formed by the NH2-terminal glycopeptide and the joining peptide, a central domain corresponding to the adrenocorticotropin sequences and a COOH-terminal domain containing the beta-lipotropin sequences. Expression of POMC in neuroendocrine cell lines such as the mouse neuroblastoma Neuro2A cells results in...
