Description | Probable molt-inhibiting hormone precursor (MEE-MIH). |
Source organism | Metapenaeus ensis (Greasyback shrimp) (Sand shrimp) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Dendrobranchiata; Penaeoidea;Penaeidae; Metapenaeus. |
Subcellular location | Secreted protein |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Belongs to the arthropod CHH/MIH/GIH/VIH hormone family. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the postmolt, intermolt, and premolt stages of the shrimp eyestalks and the brain |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Inhibits Y-organs where molting hormone (ecdysteroid) is secreted. A molting cycle is initiated when MIH secretion diminishes or stops |
