Biochem/physiol Actions

Mutations leading to disruptions of the structure and/or conformation of neurophysins are implicated in the pathophysiology of central diabetes insipidus (CDI).

Other Notes

Protein found in vasopressin- and oxytocin-containing neurons in the hypothalamus that is associated with the transport of these hormones to the posterior pituitary.

The arginine vasopressin (AVP) precursor gene of mammals contains three exons encoding the principal domains of the polyprotein precursor, including vasopressin (exon A), neurophysin (exon B), and glycopeptide (exon C). The AVP precursor (preprohormone) is processed and transported through the

This is a review of our recent modeling work aimed at: (i) development and assessment of techniques for reliable refinement of low-resolution protein structures and (ii) using these techniques, at solving specific problems pertinent to neurophysin-bioligand interactions. Neurophysins I and

When they were discovered by Acher and co-workers, neurophysins were thought to act as carriers for the active nonapeptides vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) and were then recognized as the inactive fragment of a precursor with a higher molecular weight

1. In this review the structure-function relationships of the different vasopressin prohormone domains are dated and discussed, with special reference to the neurophysin and glycopeptide domains. 2. The primary structures of the currently known neurophysins and glycopeptide sequences are compared
