About Agrp

Summary

Predicted to enable neuropeptide hormone activity and type 1 Melanocortin Receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including adult feeding behavior; neuropeptide signaling pathway; and positive regulation of feeding behavior. Located in extracellular space and neuronal cell body. Biomarker of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human AGRP (agouti related neuropeptide).
