Cholecystokinin-33 free acid is an analogue of Cholecystokinin . C-terminal amidation is important for binding of Cholecystokinin to its receptors, and removing the amide group would decrease Cholecystokinin activity. Cholecystokinin-33 free acid can be used to study C-terminal amidation of Cholecystokinin-33.
