minimised relaxin-3 analogue 2   Click here for help

GtoPdb Ligand ID: 8336

Comment: A synthetic analogue of human relaxin-3 comprising a synthetic truncated from of the A chain, and a B chain matching the natural sequence of relaxin-3 B chain. The sequence of the A chain can be found from the link on the structure tab of this ligand page, and please see the ligand entry for relaxin-3 (B chain) for the sequence of the B chain. N.B. The truncated A chain subunit of this peptide is also a subunit of minimised relaxin-3 analogue 3.
