Adrenocorticotropic hormone

A short peptide hormone represented in simple textbook molecular cartoon style as a compact but slightly elongated single-chain polypeptide. It appears as a curled or gently coiled chain of small connected beads or a thin ribbon-like strand with multiple soft bends and subtle twists, suggesting a 39-amino-acid peptide. The form is protein-like rather than ring-shaped, with a slightly irregular folded appearance and a flexible chain-like look. Color may be cool blue, teal, purple, or blue-violet, presented as a small isolated hormone icon clearly shorter than a larger precursor protein.
