| Post Translational Modifications | The initiator Met is not cleaved in variant Thionville and is acetylated. |
| Function | Involved in oxygen transport from the lung to the various peripheral tissues. Hemopressin: Hemopressin acts as an antagonist peptide of the cannabinoid receptor CNR1. Hemopressin-binding efficiently blocks cannabinoid receptor CNR1 and subsequent signaling. |
