The anorexic hormone Peptide YY(3–36) is rapidly metabolized to inactive Peptide YY(3–34) in vivo

Peptide YY (PYY) is a 36 amino acid peptide hormone released from enteroendocrine cells. An N-terminally degraded metabolite, PYY(3–36,) has anorexigenic effects, which makes the PYY system a target for obesity treatment.
