Regulation of Guanine Nucelotide Exchange in Inhibitory G Protein Alpha Subunit by Activator of G Protein Signaling 3 and Novel Regulatory Peptides
… to their affinity (Kd ~ 400 nM) for Gai1. Peptides corresponding to each of the four GoLoco motifs of AGS3 (referred to as GPR1-4, going from the N to C terminus) bind to Gai1 with Kd values in the range of 1-8 muM. GPR1, GPR2, and GPR4 were active as GDIs, but GPR3 was inactive. However, …

Isolation and Characterization of Regulatory Peptides from Two Tetraploid Species, the Pallid Sturgeon, Scaphirhynchus albus, and the African Clawed Frog, Xenopus laevis
… different mutations and produce proteins or peptides with differences in their primary structures. The isolation of multiple forms of regulatory peptides from a single species is helpful in determining the ploidy status of the species, and comparisons of the primary structures of regulatory …

Role of appetite-regulating peptides in adipose physiology in broiler chicks
Peptides that regulate feeding behavior via the brain may also regulate energy storage and expenditure in the adipose tissue, a system collectively known as the "brain-fat axis". Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is orexigenic and promotes adipogenesis in both birds and mammals, although mechanisms in adipose …

MtCEP1 peptides regulate lateral organ development in the model legume, Medicago truncatula
Plant signalling peptides have been shown to have important roles in plant development. These peptides mediate signal transduction pathways that regulate specific developmental events including meristem development and cellular differentiation. In this thesis, a member of the C- terminally Encoded …

Plant natriuretic peptides - elucidation of the mechanisms of action
… generated against vertebrate atrial natriuretic peptides (ANPs). Functional characterization of these immunoanalogues, referred to as immunoreactive plant natriuretic peptides (irPNPs) or plant natriuretic peptides (PNPs), has shown that they play important roles in a number of cellular processes …
