Entrez ID 85569
Gene name Galanin like peptide
Gene symbol GALP
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GAL
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.43
Summary This gene encodes a member of the galanin family of neuropeptides. The encoded protein binds galanin receptors 1, 2 and 3 with the highest affinity for galanin receptor 3 and has been implicated in biological processes involving the central nervous system
