    Summary
    Predicted to enable opioid receptor binding activity. Involved in chemical synaptic transmission; female pregnancy; and neuropeptide signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including axon terminus; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Orthologous to human PNOC (prepronociceptin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
