Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable corticotropin-releasing hormone activity; corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 1 binding activity; and corticotropin-releasing hormone receptor 2 binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adrenal gland development; glucocorticoid biosynthetic process; and locomotory exploration behavior. Located in neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; extraembryonic component; lung; placenta; and thymus. Used to study primary hyperaldosteronism.
