Subcellular Location[Neurosecretory protein VGF]- Secreted
Developmental StageNA
SimilarityNA
Tissue SpecificityCentral and peripheral nervous systems; synthesized exclusively in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells. VGF and several of the derived peptides are present in the brain.
Post Translational ModificationMultiple peptides are derived from VGF; with activities in synaptic plasticity; antidepression; penile erection; autonomic activation; and increases in energy expenditure.
Function[Neurosecretory protein VGF]- Secreted polyprotein that is packaged and proteolytically processed by prohormone convertases PCSK1 and PCSK2 in a cell-type-specific manner
