CC -!- FUNCTION: Nociceptin is the ligand of the opioid receptor-like CC receptor (OPRL1). It may act as a transmitter in the brain by CC modulating nociceptive and locomotor behavior. May be involved in CC neuronal differentiation and development. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed predominantly in the spinal cord and CC brain, being more abundant in the hypothalamus and striatum. Also CC found in small amounts in ovary. CC -!- PTM: Specific enzymatic cleavages at paired basic residues CC probably yield other active peptides besides nociceptin. CC -!- PTM: The N-terminal domain contains 6 conserved cysteines thought CC to be involved in disulfide bonding and/or processing. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family.
