| Description | Pigment-dispersing hormone type 2 precursor [Cleaved into- - PDH precursor-related peptide (PPRD); Pigment-dispersing hormone (PDH)]. |
| Organism | Penaeus vannamei |
| Txonomy | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Dendrobranchiata; Penaeoidea;Penaeidae; Litopenaeus. |
| Subcellular Location | Secreted |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the arthropod PDH family. |
| Tissue Specificity | Eyestalk |
| Post Translational Modification | NA |
| Function | The pigment-dispersing hormone causes the migration of the distal retinal pigment into the proximal end of the pigment chromatophore cells and thus decreases the amount of light entering the retinulas. May also function as a neurotransmitter and/or neuromodulator |
