:Neurotensin (cattle),11-L-tryptophan-
Description:
Neurotensin is a neuropeptide that plays a significant role in various physiological processes, including the modulation of pain, regulation of body temperature, and influence on the endocrine system. The specific variant "Neurotensin (cattle), 11-L-tryptophan-" refers to a form of neurotensin derived from cattle, characterized by the presence of the amino acid tryptophan at the 11th position in its sequence. This peptide is composed of 13 amino acids and is known for its ability to bind to specific receptors in the nervous system, thereby exerting its biological effects. Neurotensin is involved in neurotransmission and has been studied for its potential implications in various conditions, including schizophrenia and obesity. The CAS number 75644-95-0 uniquely identifies this specific neurotensin variant, facilitating its recognition in scientific literature and databases. Overall, neurotensin's diverse roles in the body highlight its importance in neurobiology and potential therapeutic applications.

(Trp11)-Neurotensin Pyr-Leu-Tyr-Glu-Asn-Lys-Pro-Arg-Arg-Pro-Trp-Ile-Leu-OH
CAS:Neurotensin is a peptide hormone that is found in the brain and gastrointestinal tract. It stimulates the release of acetylcholine, histamine, and serotonin from nerve endings. Neurotensin acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain by binding to specific receptors on presynaptic nerve terminals. The amino acid sequence of neurotensin contains 11 amino acids: Trp-Leu-Tyr-Glu-Asn-Lys-Pro-Arg-Arg-Pro-Trp-Ile. It is labeled with azidobenzoyl (AB) and disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS) for autoradiography studies using gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of neurotensin is approximately 7,200 daltons.Formula:C80H122N22O19Purity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:1,695.96 g/mol
