• Background: Stresscopin-related peptide, also known as Urocortin 2 (Ucn 2), is a novel predicted neuropeptide related to corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). The peptide consisting of 38 amino acid residues was first demonstrated to be expressed centrally and to bind selectively to type 2 CRF receptor (CRFR2). Expression of Ucn 2 transcripts was detected in the olfactory bulb, pituitary, cortex, hypothalamus, and spinal cord. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Stresscopin Related-Peptide coupled to a carrier protein.
• Synonyms: SRP; UCN-II; UCNI; UR; URP
