GALP - galanin like peptide Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About GALP
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 52 orthologues. Low expression observed in reference dataset.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Galanin family of neuropeptides. The encoded protein binds Galanin receptors 1, 2 and 3 with the highest affinity for Galanin receptor 3 and has been implicated in biological processes involving the central nervous system including hypothalamic regulation of metabolism and reproduction. A peptide encoded by a splice variant of this gene, termed alarin, has vasoactive properties, displays antimicrobial activity against E. coli, and may serve as a marker for neuroblastic tumors.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
