Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including identical protein binding activity; signaling receptor binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of catabolic process; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of protein localization. Predicted to act upstream of with a positive effect on receptor internalization. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including intracellular signal transduction; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and positive regulation of phosphorylation. Located in extracellular space and secretory granule. Used to study hypertension. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetic retinopathy; glucose metabolism disease (multiple); insulinoma; and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human INS (insulin).

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.
