About NMU

Cytogenetic location: 4q12 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:55,595,231-55,636,793 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants) and 143 orthologues. Biased expression in esophagus (RPKM 5.6), skin (RPKM 5.5) and 6 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the neuromedin family of neuropeptides. The encoded protein is a precursor that is proteolytically processed to generate a biologically active neuropeptide that plays a role in pain, stress, immune-mediated inflammatory diseases and feeding regulation. Increased expression of this gene was observed in renal, pancreatic and lung cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Some of these isoforms may undergo similar processing to generate the mature peptide. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]
