| Description | Pigment-dispersing hormone precursor [Cleaved into- - PDH precursor-relatedpeptide (PRPP); Pigment-dispersing hormone (PDH) (Light-adaptingdistal retinal pigment hormone) (DRPH)]. |
| Organism | Carcinus maenas |
| Txonomy | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Pleocyemata; Brachyura;Eubrachyura; Portunoidea; Portunidae; Carcinus. |
| Subcellular Location | Secreted |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the arthropod PDH family. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in eyestalk tissue and cerebral ganglia |
| Post Translational Modification | NA |
| Function | 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 |
