Summary: Orthologs of this gene express a preproprotein that is processed into a neuropeptide ligand for two G-protein coupled receptors in the central nervous system. The neuropeptide is thought to directly or indirectly regulate feeding, weight regulation, and pain response. The preproprotein is translated using a non-AUG initiation codon.

The neuropeptide W (NPW) mRNA quickly elevated in the early differentiation (7-14 days) of ATDC5 cells, while NPW and neuropeptides B/W receptor 1 (GPR7) mRNA were reduced during the late stage (14-21 days) of differentiation.

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.
