GCG
-
Official Full Name
glucagon
-
Overview
The protein encoded by this gene is actually a preproprotein that is cleaved into four distinct mature peptides. One of these, glucagon, is a pancreatic hormone that counteracts the glucose-lowering action of insulin by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Glucagon is a ligand for a specific G-protein linked receptor whose signalling pathway controls cell proliferation. Two of the other peptides are secreted from gut endocrine cells and promote nutrient absorption through distinct mechanisms. Finally, the fourth peptide is similar to glicentin, an active enteroglucagon. -

GCG has several biochemical functions, for example, hormone activity, identical protein binding, protein binding. Some of the functions are cooperated with other proteins, some of the functions could acted by GCG itself. We selected most functions GCG had, and list some proteins which have the same functions with GCG. You can find most of the proteins on our site.
