Protein attributes

Sequence length	128 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is further processed into a mature form.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	CGRP induces vasodilation. It dilates a variety of vessels including the coronary, cerebral and systemic vasculature. Its abundance in the CNS also points toward a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role. It also elevates platelet cAMP By similarity.
Subcellular location	Secreted.
Tissue specificity	Detected in nerve cells of cerebrum, hippocampus and pons/midbrain in newborns, and only in nerve cells of pons/midbrain in adult. Ref.4
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the calcitonin family.
