Intermedin (IMD)
Overview
Intermedin (IMD) is a novel peptide belonging to the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) superfamily, sharing structural features with adrenomedullin (AM) and CGRP. It is expressed in multiple tissues including the heart, kidney, and brain. Active C-terminal fragments IMD(1-53), IMD(1-47), and IMD(8-47) are widely used in cardiovascular and neuroendocrine research.
Key Features
- Member of the CGRP/adrenomedullin peptide family
- Binds calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CALCRL) complexes
- Biotinylated variants available for receptor studies
