CC -!- FUNCTION: UROTENSIN IS FOUND IN THE TELEOST CAUDAL NEUROSECRETORY CC SYSTEM. IT HAS A SUGGESTED ROLE IN OSMOREGULATION AND AS A CC CORTICOTROPIN-RELEASING FACTOR. THE NONHORMONAL PORTION OF THIS CC PRECURSOR MAY BE A UROTENSIN BINDING PROTEIN, UROPHYSIN. CC -!- SIMILARITY: BELONGS TO THE UROTENSIN 2 FAMILY.
