DescriptionPrepro-urotensin II-alpha [Cleaved into- Urophysin alpha; Urotensin II-alpha (U-II-alpha) (UII-alpha)]
OrganismCyprinus carpio
TxonomyEukaryota; Opisthokonta; Metazoa; Eumetazoa; Bilateria; Deuterostomia; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Gnathostomata (jawed vertebrates); Teleostomi; Euteleostomi; Actinopterygii; Actinopteri; Neopterygii; Teleostei; Osteoglossocephalai; Clupeocephala; Otomorpha; Ostariophysi; Otophysi; Cypriniphysae; Cypriniformes (carps and others); Cyprinoidei; Cyprinidae; Cyprininae; Cyprinus; Cyprinus carpio (Common carp)
Subcellular LocationSecreted
Developmental StageNA
SimilarityBelongs to the urotensin-2 family.
Tissue SpecificityNA
Post Translational ModificationNA
FunctionUrotensin 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.
