Atrial natriuretic peptide receptor 3

UniProt P17342 Organism Homo sapiens Gene ANPRC, C5orf23, NPR3, NPRC

Also known as: ANPRC, C5orf23, NPR3, NPRC

Function

Receptor for the natriuretic peptide hormones, binding with similar affinities atrial natriuretic peptide NPPA/ANP, brain natriuretic peptide NPPB/BNP, and C-type natriuretic peptide NPPC/CNP. May function as a clearance receptor for NPPA, NPPB and NPPC, regulating their local concentrations and effects. Acts as a regulator of osteoblast differentiation and bone growth by binding to its ligand osteocrin, thereby preventing binding between NPR3/NPR-C and natriuretic peptides, leading to increase cGMP production (By similarity).
