Description
Predicted to have hormone activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of feeding behavior; positive regulation of pancreatic A cell differentiation; and type B pancreatic cell differentiation. Predicted to localize to extracellular region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in diabetic retinopathy; glucose metabolism disease (multiple); insulinoma; and pancreatic cancer. Is expressed in several structures, including blood plasma; dermal bone; digestive system; endocrine cell; and endoderm. Orthologous to several human genes including INS (insulin).
