    Summary
    Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and receptor ligand activity. Involved in several processes, including hyperosmotic response; response to acidic pH; and response to steroid hormone. Located in extracellular space and neuronal cell body. Is active in neuronal dense core vesicle. Biomarker of gastric ulcer; hypertension; and vascular dementia. Orthologous to human SST (somatostatin).

    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.
