Prl3b1 - prolactin family 3, subfamily b, member 1 Gene

Also Known as PL; Pl2; Csh2; Ghd8; Pl-2; mplII; mPL-II

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 18776

Summary

Predicted to enable hormone activity and Prolactin receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of lactation; positive regulation of pri-miRNA transcription by RNA polymerase II; and positive regulation of receptor signaling pathway via JAK-STAT. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in extraembryonic component and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carotid artery disease. Orthologous to human PRL (Prolactin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
