Deskripsi

The human neuropeptide Y (NPY) acts through G-protein coupled receptors and is involved in food intake, stress response, anxiety, and memory retention. Here, the authors show that, unlike in other neuropeptides, both the N-terminal and the C-terminal regions of NPY interact with the NPY receptor 1.
