This peptide, a PYY (3-36), a Y2R agonist, is released from the gastrointestinal tract postprandially in proportion to the calorie content of a meal and can inhibit food intake.
Peptide YY-3 exhibits unique chemical and physical properties due to its complex structure. It has a high degree of complexity and a significant number of stereocenters, reflecting its intricate three-dimensional configuration. These properties contribute to its biological functions and interactions within the human body.
