Summary
Enables V1A vasopressin receptor binding activity; V1B vasopressin receptor binding activity; and neuropeptide hormone activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular cation homeostasis; mating; and regulation of secretion. Located in dendrite; extracellular space; and secretory granule. Used to study diabetes insipidus; hyperglycemia; portal hypertension; temporal lobe epilepsy; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Biomarker of hypertension; neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus; type 2 diabetes mellitus; and vascular dementia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetes insipidus and neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus. Orthologous to human AVP (arginine vasopressin).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
