- Overview
  - POMC produced in E. Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 262 amino acids (27-267 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 28.9kDa (molecular weight on SDS-PAGE will appear higher). POMC is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Pro-opiomelanocortin preproprotein (POMC) is a polypeptide hormone precursor which experiences extensive, tissue-specific, post-translational processing via cleavage by subtilisin-like enzymes known as prohormone convertases. POMC regulates the corticosteroid production in the adrenal cortex. Furthermore, POMC is cleaved into ten hormone chains named NPP, g-MSH, ACTH, a-MSH, CLIP, Lipotropin b, Lipotropin g, b-MSH,b endorphin and Met-enkephalin. POMC gene defects are the cause of POMC deficiency, which is characterized by red hair and adrenal insufficiency.
