High impact information on pyy

 

Biological context of pyy

  • This suggests that npy and pyy arose from a common ancestral gene in a chromosomal duplication event that also involved the hox gene clusters [1].
 

Anatomical context of pyy

  • Functional expression of the lamprey receptor in a cell line facilitated specific binding of the three endogenous lamprey peptides NPY, peptide YY and peptide MY with picomolar affinities [2].
