| Description | Pro-MCH precursor [Contains: Neuropeptide-glycine-glutamic acid (NGE)(Neuropeptide G-E); Neuropeptide-glutamic acid-isoleucine (NEI)(Neuropeptide E-I); Melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH)]. |
| Source organism | Canis familiaris (Dog) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Carnivora; Caniformia; Canidae;Canis. |
| Subcellular location | Secreted protein (By similarity) |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the melanin-concentrating hormone family. |
| Tissue Specificity | N/A |
| Post translational modification | Pro-MCH is processed differentially in the brain and in peripheral organs producing two neuropeptides; NEI and MCH. A third peptide, NGE, may also be produced. Preferential processing in neurons by prohormone convertase 2 (PC2) generates NEI. MCH is generated in neurons of the lateral hypothalmic area by several prohormone convertases including PC1/3, PC2 and PC5/6 (By similarity). MCH is a cyclic peptide (By similarity). |
