Description | Spexin is a novel peptide hormone that is derived from prohormone proNPQ and is conserved amongst mammalian species. Spexin (36-49) is post-translationally amidated with a C-terminal amidation processing signal motif (GRR) following Q49 residue of the pro-hormone. Spexin reduces adipocyte uptake of long chain fatty acids and causes weight loss in rodents. Recently it was suggested that this peptide may play a role in lipid and glucose metabolism in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus. |
