GUCA2B - guanylate cyclase activator 2B Gene
Also Known as UGN; GCAP-II
Species: Homo sapiens
About GUCA2B
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 148 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 47.4), colon (RPKM 37.0) and 1 other tissue.
Summary
This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products, including uroguanylin, a member of the guanylin family of peptides and an endogenous ligand of the guanylate cyclase-C receptor. Binding of this peptide to its cognate receptor stimulates an increase in cyclic GMP and may regulate salt and water homeostasis in the intestine and kidneys. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
