| Background | Prorelaxin H2 (relaxin B-chain) is a ~21 kDa protein. Relaxin is an ovarian hormone that acts with estrogen to produce dilatation of the birth canal in many mammals. May be involved in remodeling of connective tissues during pregnancy, promoting growth of pubic ligaments and ripening of the cervix. |
