Apelin - CISMeF

Preferred Label : Apelin;

NCIt synonyms : APJ Endogenous Ligand; AGTRL1 Ligand; APLN;

NCIt definition : Apelin (77 aa, 9 kDa) is encoded by the human APLN gene. This protein is involved in both the inhibition of HIV-1 entry into cells and in immune responses.;

NCIt note : Apelin is a precursor to at least four active peptides that are produced by proteolytic processing of the full length gene product. These active peptides include Apelin-36, Apelin-31, Apelin-28 and Apelin-13. (UniProt);
