An Amphipathic Alpha-Helix in the Prodomain of Cocaine and Amphetamine Regulated Transcript Peptide Precursor Serves as Its Sorting Signal to the Regulated Secretory Pathway
Cocaine and Amphetamine Regulated Transcript (CART) peptides are anorexigenic neuropeptides. The L34F mutation in human CART peptide precursor (proCART) has been linked to obesity (Yanik et al. Endocrinology 147: 39, 2006). Decrease in CART peptide levels in individuals carrying the L34F mutation wa...
