Abstract:Relaxin-3, a member of the insulin/relaxin superfamily, has been shown to be involved in modulating several neurophysiological process including food intake, stress, addiction, arousal, memory and learning in animal models. Its sequence is highly evolutionary conserved, which strongly suggests an important physiological function. Elucidation of the relaxin-3 three-dimensional structure showed that relaxin-3 adopts a structure similar to insulin, in which the two peptide chains are linked by two inter-chain and… Show more
