| Storage Instruction: | Spin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute in 0.05 mL of sterile-filtered PBS (pH 7.4). Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. At least 12 months after purchase at 2-8°C (lyophilized formulations). After reconstitution, aliquot and store at |
| Gene Symbol: | POMC |
| Gene ID: | 5443 |
| Uniprot ID: | COLI_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: | 179-267 aa |
| Specificity: | Human; mouse; rat. Beta-Lipotropin is highly conserved so cross-reactivity with other species is expected. Cross-reactivity with other opioid peptides is as follows: with Leu-enkephalin 0.01%; with Met-Enkephalin 0.01%; with beta-endorphin 0.01%. |
| Immunogen: | Synthetic peptide (179-267 aa) of human beta-Lipotropin conjugated to thyroglobulin was used as the immunogen. |
| Immunogen Sequence: | Human |
| Tissue Specificity | ACTH and MSH are produced by the pituitary gland. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues yield the different active peptides. O-glycosylated.reducing sugar is probably N-acetylgalactosamine. |
| Function | Corticotropin: Stimulates the adrenal glands to release cortisol. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone alpha: Anorexigenic peptide. Increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. Melanocyte-stimulating hormone beta: Increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes. Beta-endorphin: Endogenous orexigenic opiate. Met-enkephalin: Endogenous opiate. |
