Protein Domain : Tuberoinfundibular peptide of 39 residues

Primary Identifier  IPR029396 Type  Family
Short Name  TIP39
description  This entry represents Tuberoinfundibular peptide of 39 residues (TIP39), which is a potent and selective agonist of the parathyroid hormone 2 receptor (PTH2R) []. In human, TIP39 expression was detected by RT-PCR in the brain, trachea, fetal liver, kidney and heart. In the brain, TIP39 is expressed in only three sites, the medial and lateral parts of the subparafascicular area in the caudal thalamus, and the medial paralemnsical nucleus in the lateral pons []. The TIP39-PTH2R system is a unique neuropeptide-receptor system that plays a role in limbic, endocrine, viscerosensory, and auditory functions [].
