• Background: Peptide YY (PYY), also known as peptide tyrosine tyrosine, is a 36-amino acid peptide related to the pancreatic polypeptide (PP) family, with 18 of its 36 amino acids located in the same positions as pancreatic polypeptide. The two major forms of peptide YY are PYY1-36 and PYY3-36, which have PP fold structural motifs. PYY is released from cells in the ileum and colon in response to feeding, and exerts its action through neuropeptide Y (NPY) receptors. It has been shown to reduce appetite and may suppress pancreatic secretion. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Peptide YY coupled to a carrier protein.
• Synonyms: PYY-I; PYY1
