Definition
English
:
A 30-kDa protein synthesized primarily in the ANTERIOR
PITUITARY GLAND
and the
HYPOTHALAMUS
. It is also found in the skin and other peripheral
tissues
. Depending on species and
tissues
, POMC is cleaved by PROHORMONE CONVERTASES yielding various active
peptides
including ACTH;
BETA-LIPOTROPIN
;
ENDORPHINS
;
MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONES
; and others (GAMMA-LPH;
CORTICOTROPIN-LIKE INTERMEDIATE LOBE PEPTIDE
; N-terminal peptide of POMC or NPP).
