The observed alterations suggested different from Nucb2 physiological roles of nesfatin-3 and different impacts on the functioning of the tissues and on metabolism and its control. Our results clearly demonstrated that nesfatin-3 possessed divalent metal ion binding properties, which remained hidden in the nucleobindin-2 precursor protein.
