Overview

The precursor (PRLH, P81277) for PrRP generates 31 and 20-amino-acid versions. QRFP43 (43RFa) (named after a pyroglutamylated arginine-phenylalanine-amide peptide) is a 43 amino acid peptide derived from ...

RFRP is an RF amide-related peptide [1] derived from a FMRFamide-related peptide precursor (NPVF, Q9HCQ7), which is cleaved to generate neuropeptide SF, neuropeptide RFRP-1, neuropeptide RFRP-2 and neuropeptide RFRP-3 (neuropeptide NPVF).
