The uts2 gene encodes urotensin-2, a peptide hormone that functions as a signaling molecule in Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. It is involved in various physiological processes, including cardiovascular regulation, and is expressed in tissues such as the brain and cardiovascular system. The protein acts as a vasoconstrictor and may be involved in stress responses. [-]
