Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
This gene encodes a member of the relaxin subfamily and insulin superfamily of peptide hormones. In humans there are three non-allelic relaxin genes. This gene encodes multiple protein isoforms, at least one of which undergoes proteolytic processing. This

UniProt ID P04090
Protein name Prorelaxin H2 [Cleaved into: Relaxin B chain; Relaxin A chain]
Protein function Relaxin is an ovarian hormone that acts with estrogen to produce dilatation of the birth canal in many mammals. May be involved in remodeling of connective tissues during pregnancy, promoting growth of pubic ligaments and ripening of the cervix.
