    Summary
    Predicted to enable endothelin B receptor binding activity and hormone activity. Involved in several processes, including ovarian follicle rupture; phospholipase C-activating G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and regulation of hormone secretion. Located in extracellular space. Biomarker of myocardial infarction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension. Orthologous to human EDN2 (endothelin 2).

    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.
