    摘要: A human urocortin-related peptide with significant sequence homology to the CRF neuropeptide family was identified. A mouse cDNA was isolated from whole brain poly (A+) RNA that encodes a predicted 38 amino acid peptide protein designated herein as urocortin II. Both human URP and mouse Ucn II are structurally related to the other known mammalian family members, CRF and urocortin (Ucn). These peptides are involved in the regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis under basal and stress conditions, suggesting a similar role for URP and Ucn IL Synthesized Ucn-II and URP peptide binds with higher affinity to CRF-R2 than to CRF-R1 Ucn II and human URP appear to be involved in the regulation of body temperature and appetite and may play a role in other stress related phenomenon. These findings identify Ucn II and human URP as a new members of the CRF family of neuropeptides, which are expressed centrally and bind to CRF-R2.

    摘要: The present invention provides isolated nucleic acids and proteins that are new and distinct members of the bHLH-PAS superfamily of transcription regulators. These “MOPs” (members of PAS) are useful in a variety of research, diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Several of the MOPs of the present invention are α-class hypoxia-inducible factors. Several other of the MOPs of the invention are involved in circadian signal transduction.
