CC -!- FUNCTION: Relaxin is an ovarian hormone that acts with estrogen to
CC produce dilatation of the birth canal in many mammals. May be involved
CC in remodeling of connective tissues during pregnancy, promoting growth
CC of pubic ligaments and ripening of the cervix.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two
CC disulfide bonds.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2;
CC Name=1;
CC IsoId=P04090-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=2;
CC IsoId=P04090-2; Sequence=VSP_002711, VSP_002712;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform 1 is expressed in the ovary during
CC pregnancy. Also expressed in placenta, decidua and prostate. Isoform 2
CC is relatively abundant in placenta. It is in much lower abundance in
CC the prostate gland. Not detected in the ovary.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:6548702, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8735594}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the insulin family. {ECO:0000305}.
