Abstract
This invention relates to isolated polypeptides that are long acting analogs of human PYY. The disclosed PYY analog polypeptides have beneficial physicochemical properties relative to endogenous PYY and known synthetic PYY analog polypeptides, such as longer (i.e., 'long-acting') elimination half-lives (t), and improved solubility and thermal stability. This invention also relates to methods of using presently disclosed PYY analog polypeptides in a variety of therapeutic indications, as well as methods of producing the same. The disclosed PYY analog polypeptides are particularly useful in methods of treating metabolic diseases or disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, treating obesity, and providing weight loss, and in methods of treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and/or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).
