Synonyms | OX, PPORX, PPOX |
Function | Neuropeptides that play a significant role in the regulation of food intake and sleep-wakefulness, possibly by coordinating the complex behavioral and physiologic responses of these complementary homeostatic functions. A broader role in the homeostatic regulation of energy metabolism, autonomic function, hormonal balance and the regulation of body fluids, is also suggested. |
Cellular Location | Rough endoplasmic reticulum {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55232}. Cytoplasmic vesicle {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55232}. Synapse {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55232} Note=Associated with perikaryal rough endoplasmic reticulum as well as cytoplasmic large granular vesicles at synapses {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55232} |
Tissue Location | Abundantly expressed in subthalamic nucleus but undetectable in other brain regions tested (hypothalamus was not tested) and in heart, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. |
