| Subcellular Location | Secreted |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the KISS1 family. |
| Tissue Specificity | In the hypothalamus; expression increases with puberty in both male and female monkeys. Robust expression in the region of the arcuate nucleus (ARC). |
| Post Translational Modification | NA |
| Function | Metastasis suppressor protein. May regulate events downstream of cell-matrix adhesion; perhaps involving cytoskeletal reorganization. Generates a C-terminally amidated peptide; metastin which functions as the endogenous ligand of the G-protein coupled receptor GPR54. The receptor is essential for normal gonadotropin-released hormone physiology and for puberty. The hypothalamic KiSS1/GPR54 system is a pivotal factor in central regulation of the gonadotropic axis at puberty and in adulthood. |
