NMB - neuromedin B Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About NMB
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 162 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 21.3), brain (RPKM 11.2) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the bombesin-like family of neuropeptides, which negatively regulate eating behavior. The encoded protein may regulate colonic smooth muscle contraction through binding to its cognate receptor, the neuromedin B receptor (NMBR). Polymorphisms of this gene may be associated with hunger, weight gain and obesity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
