| 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. |
