Summary: Enables apelin receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on determination of heart left/right asymmetry and determination of liver left/right asymmetry. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell migration involved in mesendoderm migration; circulatory system development; and mesodermal cell migration. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including axial chorda mesoderm; axis; cardiovascular system; digestive system; and pleuroperitoneal region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congestive heart failure. Orthologous to human APLN (apelin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
