Subcellular Location[NT-proBNP]- Secreted
Developmental StageNA
SimilarityBelongs to the natriuretic peptide family.
Tissue Specificity[Brain natriuretic peptide 32]- Detected in the cardiac atria (at protein level) (PubMed-2138890; PubMed-2136732). Detected in the kidney distal tubular cells (at protein level) (PubMed-9794555).
Post Translational ModificationThe precursor molecule is proteolytically cleaved by the endoproteases FURIN or CORIN at Arg-102 to produce brain natriuretic peptide 32 and NT-proBNP (PubMed-21314817; PubMed-10880574; PubMed-2176327
