Background
This gene encodes a member of the glucagon superfamily of hormones that have important roles in growth and metabolism. The encoded protein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate mature peptides that function as hypophysiotropic hormones, neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and vasoregulators. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit a high rate of early mortality. The surviving adult animals lacking the encoded protein exhibit decreased anxiety, hyperactive behavior and impaired steroidogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
