| Alternative Names | FLJ94114; LEP; LEP_HUMAN; LEPD; Leptin; Leptin (murine obesity homolog); Leptin (obesity homolog, mouse); Leptin Murine Obesity Homolog; Leptin Precursor Obesity Factor; OB; Obese protein; Obese, mouse, homolog of; Obesity; Obesity factor; Obesity homolog mouse; Obesity Murine Homolog Leptin; OBS; OTTHUMP00000212285 |
| Function | May function as part of a signaling pathway that acts to regulate the size of the body fat depot. An increase in the level of LEP may act directly or indirectly on the CNS to inhibit food intake and/or regulate energy expenditure as part of a homeostatic mechanism to maintain constancy of the adipose mass. |
| Involvement In Disease | Defects in LEP may be a cause of obesity (OBESITY). It is a condition characterized by an increase of body weight beyond the limitation of skeletal and physical requirements, as the result of excessive accumulation of body fat. |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted. |
| Protein Length | Protein fragment |
| Protein Family/Domains | The sequence of the first four N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Thr-Pro-Val. Belongs to the leptin family. |
