Background： The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. It is found in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells. This gene product is a precursor to three biologically active peptides; vasostatin, pancreastatin, and parastatin. These peptides act as autocrine or paracrine negative modulators of the neuroendocrine system. Two other peptides, catestatin and chromofungin, have antimicrobial activity and antifungal activity, respectively. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function：function:Pancreastatin strongly inhibits glucose induced insulin release from the pancreas.,miscellaneous:Binds calcium with a low-affinity.,PTM:Sulfated on tyrosine residues and/or contains sulfated glycans.,similarity:Belongs to the chromogranin/secretogranin protein family.,subcellular location:Neuroendocrine and endocrine secretory granules.,

Subcellular Location：[Serpinin]: Secreted . Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle . Pyroglutaminated serpinin localizes to secretory vesicle. .; Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle . Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, neuronal dense core vesicle . Secreted . Associated with the secretory granule membrane through direct interaction to SCG3 that in turn binds to cholesterol-enriched lipid rafts in intragranular conditions. In pituitary gonadotropes, located in large secretory granules. .

Expression：GE-25 is found in the brain.
