    Summary
    Enables hormone activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of biosynthetic process; positive regulation of cGMP-mediated signaling; and positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Acts upstream of or within receptor guanylyl cyclase signaling pathway. Located in extracellular space and secretory granule. Biomarker of aortic valve stenosis and heart disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in depressive disorder and hypertension. Orthologous to human NPPC (natriuretic peptide C). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
