A basic description
|
Peptide that is more potent than CRF at binding and activating type-2 CRF receptors and shares ~95% sequence with human version. As a mammalian neuropeptide related to fish urotensin and corticotropin-releasing factor, it also serves as an inducer of c-Fos in regions enriched in type-2 CRF receptors.
