Secondary structures of human calcitonin at different temperatures and in different membrane-mimicking environments, characterized by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy

2024-04-18

Abstract excerpt

Human calcitonin is a 32-residue peptide hormone that binds to the calcitonin receptor (CTR) and is involved in calcium regulation. The amino acid sequence displays a hydrophilic central segment flanked by hydrophobic C- and N-terminal regions, with a net charge of zero at neutral pH. This makes the molecule amphiphilic and conformationally flexible, and different CTR variants preferentially recognize different st...
