NPPA gene structure and expression. Transcription and translation of its three exons initially yields preproANP, a 151 AA protein. Post-translational modifications generate ANP along with the N-terminal proANP peptides. ANP, LANP, Vessel Dilator, and Kaliuretic Hormone are all felt to have biological activity.
