Gene nameUCN2
Protein nameUrocortin-2 (Stresscopin-related peptide) (Urocortin II) (Ucn II) (Urocortin-related peptide)
SynonymsSRP
URP
DescriptionFUNCTION: Suppresses food intake, delays gastric emptying and decreases heat-induced edema. Might represent an endogenous ligand for maintaining homeostasis after stress.
