Product Description | Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), originally named corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), and also called corticoliberin, is a polypeptide hormone and neurotransmitter involved in the stress response. It belongs to corticotropin-releasing factor family. Its main function is the stimulation of the pituitary synthesis of ACTH. |
Scientific Background | Corticotropin Releasing Factor, human, rat is a 41-residue synthetic peptide with the sequence Ser-Glu-Glu-Pro-Pro-Ile-Ser-Leu-Asp-Leu-Thr-Phe-His-Leu-Leu-Arg-Glu-Val-Leu-Glu-Met-Ala-Arg-Ala-Glu-Gln-Leu-Ala-Gln-Gln-Ala-His-Ser-Asn-Arg-Lys-Leu-Met-Glu-Ile-Ile. C-terminal amidation removes the terminal carboxylate charge. The sequence contains 1 Lys and 3 Arg residues, contributing cationic character. These sequence-derived properties describe the reagent chemically; no specific receptor, enzyme, pathway, disease association, or biological activity is assigned without product-specific experimental evidence. |
Research Applications | - LC-MS/HPLC analytical method development
- sequence-specific assay controls
|
Experimental Notes | Sequence-derived chemical properties support reagent selection and experimental planning but do not establish biological function. Solubility, aggregation, adsorption, conjugation efficiency, and assay performance should be validated under the intended experimental conditions. |
