What pLDDT means and how to read it

Function

Stimulates feeding and grooming behavior, metabolic rate and locomotor activity and increases blood pressure. May have orexigenic activity. May promote aldosterone secretion by the adrenal gland

Subunit structure

Ligand for the G protein-coupled receptor QRFPR/GPR103

Subcellular location

Secreted
