Involvement in disease
Atrial standstill 2
Atrial fibrillation, familial, 6 -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the natriuretic peptide family. -
Post-translational
modificationsCleaved by CORIN upon secretion to produce the functional hormone.
Atrial natriuretic factor: Cleaved by MME. The cleavage initiates degradation of the factor and thereby regulate its activity. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
