Peptide Transport

  • Chapter
Aharon Katzir Memorial Volume

Part of the book series: Biomembranes ((B,volume 7))

Abstract

Many roles are being ascribed to peptides in nature. These include hormonal activity, control of pituitary tropic hormone secretion, translocation of ions across membranes, regulation of cell growth, memory transmission, carcinogenesis, and antimicrobial and nutritional activity. Some of these activities have been reported to be extracellular, i.e., activation of an endogenous system as a result of the peptide binding to a specific receptor on the membrane; however, others might require the entrance of the peptide into the cell. It is therefore of great interest to determine whether peptides as such can cross membranes and to study this process of peptide transport.
