About PNOC

Cytogenetic location: 8p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:28,316,988-28,343,351 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 257 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 7.7), lymph node (RPKM 5.0) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate multiple protein products. These products include nociceptin, nocistatin, and orphanin FQ2 (OFQ2). Nociceptin, also known as orphanin FQ, is a 17-amino acid neuropeptide that binds to the nociceptin receptor to induce increased pain sensitivity, and may additionally regulate body temperature, learning and memory, and hunger. Another product of the encoded preproprotein, nocistatin, may inhibit the effects of nociceptin. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
