Subcellular Location | Secreted |
Developmental Stage | NA |
Similarity | Belongs to the urotensin-2 family. |
Tissue Specificity | NA |
Post Translational Modification | NA |
Function | Urotensin is found in the teleost caudal neurosecretory system. It has a suggested role in osmoregulation and as a corticotropin-releasing factor. The non-hormonal portion of this precursor may be a urotensin binding protein; urophysin. |
