Secreted protein.

[edit] Developmental Stage

[edit] Similarity

Belongs to the sauvagine/corticotropin-releasing factor/urotensin I family.

[edit] Post translational Modification

[edit] Function

Regulation of fluid secretion. May stimulate primary urine secretion by Malpighian tubules and causes a dose-dependent stimulation of cAMP levels in the tubules
