GtoPdb Ligand ID: 687

Abbreviated name: AMY
Compound class: Endogenous peptide in human, mouse or rat
Comment: Amylin acts as an appetite suppressor.

Novo Nordisk have a long-acting amylin mimetic (cagrilintide, AM833) in clinical trials with and without semaglutide. AM833 is intended as a treatment for obesity. In the trials it is administered subcutaneously, once-weekly.
Species: Human

Ligand Activity Visualisation Charts

These are box plot that provide a unique visualisation, summarising all the activity data for a ligand taken from ChEMBL and GtoPdb across multiple targets and species. Click on a plot to see the median, interquartile range, low and high data points. A value of zero indicates that no data are available. A separate chart is created for each target, and where possible the algorithm tries to merge ChEMBL and GtoPdb targets by matching them on name and UniProt accession, for each available species. However, please note that inconsistency in naming of targets may lead to data for the same target being reported across multiple charts.

Post-translational Modification
The C-terminal proline is amidated into Pro-NH2 and a disulphide bridge is formed between cysteine residues at positions 2 and 7.
