ABSTRACT
Our recent study confirmed that the mature neuropeptide FAM237A, also known as neurosecretory protein GL (NPGL), is an efficient agonist for GPR83. The paralog FAM237B was previously reported as a weak agonist for GPR83. In the present study, we prepared mature human FAM237B via an intein-fusion approach and demonstrated that it could cause a significant activation effect at the nanomolar range (1‒10 nM) in a NanoBiT-based ß-arrestin recruitment assay. Thus, FAM237B appears to be another endogenous agonist for GPR83 and future in vivo studies will be required to confirm this.
