Investigating the mechanisms of action of VGF-derived peptides in the nervous system

The VGF neurosecretory protein, first identified as a nerve growth factor (NGF) inducible gene product, is selectively synthesised predominantly in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells. The ~68 kDa VGF protein sequence is rich in paired basic amino acids, and thus the protein undergoes endoproteolytic...
