CC -!- FUNCTION: [Neurosecretory protein VGF]: Secreted polyprotein that is
CC packaged and proteolytically processed by prohormone convertases PCSK1
CC and PCSK2 in a cell-type-specific manner (By similarity). VGF and
CC peptides derived from its processing play many roles in neurogenesis
CC and neuroplasticity associated with learning, memory, depression and
CC chronic pain (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20156,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VGU4}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [Neuroendocrine regulatory peptide-1]: Plays a role in the
CC control of body fluid homeostasis by regulating vasopressin release.
CC Suppresses presynaptic glutamatergic neurons connected to vasopressin
CC neurons. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20156}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [Neuroendocrine regulatory peptide-2]: Plays a role in the
CC control of body fluid homeostasis by regulating vasopressin release.
CC Activates GABAergic interneurons which are inhibitory neurons of the
CC nervous system and thereby suppresses presynaptic glutamatergic neurons
CC (By similarity). Stimulates also feeding behavior in an orexin-
CC dependent manner in the hypothalamus (By similarity). Functions as a
CC positive regulator for the activation of orexin neurons resulting in
CC elevated gastric acid secretion and gastric emptying (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20156}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [VGF-derived peptide TLQP-21]: Secreted multifunctional
CC neuropeptide that binds to different cell receptors and thereby plays
CC multiple physiological roles including modulation of energy
CC expenditure, pain, response to stress, gastric regulation, glucose
CC homeostasis as well as lipolysis (By similarity). Activates the G-
CC protein-coupled receptor C3AR1 via a folding-upon-binding mechanism
CC leading to enhanced lipolysis in adipocytes (By similarity). Interacts
CC with C1QBP receptor in macrophages and microglia causing increased
CC levels of intracellular calcium and hypersensitivity (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20156, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VGU4}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [VGF-derived peptide TLQP-62]: Plays a role in the regulation
CC of memory formation and depression-related behaviors potentially by
CC influencing synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis. Induces acute and
CC transient activation of the NTRK2/TRKB receptor and subsequent CREB
CC phosphorylation (By similarity). Induces also insulin secretion in
CC insulinoma cells by increasing intracellular calcium mobilization (By
CC similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VGU4}.
CC -!- FUNCTION: [Antimicrobial peptide VGF[554-577]]: Has bactericidal
CC activity against M. luteus, and antifungal activity against P.
CC Pastoris. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23250050}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: [VGF-derived peptide TLQP-21]: Interacts with HSPA8 on cell
CC membrane (PubMed:28934328). Interacts with C3AR1 (By similarity).
CC Interacts with C1QBP (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P20156,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q0VGU4, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28934328}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Neurosecretory protein VGF]: Secreted
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19194657}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19194657}. Note=Stored in secretory vesicles and
CC then secreted, NERP peptides colocalize with vasopressin in the storage
CC granules of hypothalamus.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Central and peripheral nervous systems, synthesized
CC exclusively in neuronal and neuroendocrine cells.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19194657}.
CC -!- PTM: Multiple peptides are derived from VGF, with activities in
CC synaptic plasticity, antidepression, penile erection, autonomic
CC activation, and increases in energy expenditure. {ECO:0000250}.
