Gene Summary

Enables aspartic-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in angiotensin maturation; male gonad development; and mesonephros development. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on regulation of blood pressure. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including drinking behavior; hormone-mediated signaling pathway; and renin-angiotensin regulation of aldosterone production. Located in extracellular space. Is active in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and trunk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease 4; essential hypertension; hand, foot and mouth disease; hypertension; and portal hypertension. Orthologous to human REN (renin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
