General description

Peptide YY (UniProt P10082; also known as Peptide tyrosine tyrosine, PYY, PYY-I) is encoded by the PYY (also known as PYY1) gene (Gene ID 5697) in human. Peptide YY is initially produced as a preproprotein with a signal and a propeptide sequence (aa 1-28 and aa 68-97, respectively). There are two major forms of mature peptide YY corresponding to aa 29-64 and aa 31-64 of the prepro sequence, commonly known as YY(1-36) and YY(3-36), respectively. PYY is one of several well recognized circulating anorexigenic peptides, whose productions increase post-prandially. PYY and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) are released from L cells that predominate in the distal ileum and colon. The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is reported to mediate PYY and GLP-1 release from enteroendocrine L cells upon melanocortin peptides stimulation.

Specificity

Reacts with prepro-, pro-, and mature peptide YY & peptide YY(3-36).

Immunogen

Epitope: Mature Peptide YY
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the mature human peptide YY.
