Abbreviation: HCRT
Target Synonym: HCRT;NRCLP1;OX;PPOX;orexin
Conjugation: Unconjugated
UNIProt ID: O43612
Background: This gene encodes a hypothalamic neuropeptide precursor protein that gives rise to two mature neuropeptides, orexin A and orexin B, by proteolytic processing. Orexin A and orexin B, which bind to orphan G-protein coupled receptors HCRTR1 and HCRTR2, function in the regulation of sleep and arousal. This neuropeptide arrangement may also play a role in feeding behavior, metabolism, and homeostasis.
Concentration: 1mg/mL
