Gene nameGUCA2B
Protein nameGuanylate cyclase activator 2B [Cleaved into: Guanylate cyclase C-activating peptide 2 (Guanylate cyclase C-activating peptide II) (GCAP-II); Uroguanylin (UGN)]
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Endogenous activator of intestinal guanylate cyclase. It stimulates this enzyme through the same receptor binding region as the heat-stable enterotoxins. May be a potent physiological regulator of intestinal fluid and electrolyte transport. May be an autocrine/paracrine regulator of intestinal salt and water transport.
