DescriptionAppetite-regulating hormone precursor (Growth hormone secretagogue)(Growth hormone-releasing peptide) (Motilin-related peptide)[Contains: Ghrelin; Obestatin-23; Obestatin-13].
Source organismRattus norvegicus (Rat)
Taxonomical ClassificationEukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Sciurognathi;Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus.
Subcellular locationSecreted protein
Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the motilin family.
Tissue SpecificityGhrelin is broadly expressed with higher expression in the stomach. Very low levels are detected in the hypothalamus, heart, lung, pancreas, intestine and adipose tissue. Obestatin is most highly expressed in jejunum, and also found in duodenum, stomach, pituitary, ileum, liver, hypothalamus and heart. Expressed in low levels in pancreas, cerebellum, cerebrum, kidney, testis, ovary colon and lung
Post translational modification O-n-octanoylation is essential for ghrelin activity. The replacement of Ser-26 by aromatic tryptophan preserves ghrelin activity. Amidation of Leu-98 is essential for obestatin activity.
FunctionGhrelin is the ligand for growth hormone secretagogue receptor type 1 (GHSR). Induces the release of growth hormone from the pituitary. Has an appetite-stimulating effect, induces adiposity and stimulates gastric acid secretion. Involved in growth regulation

Developmental StageLevels of n-octanoylated and n-decanoylated ghrelin drop by one third and 3-fold, respectively, between postnatal weeks 3 and 4 due to change of diet during weaning.
Similarity Belongs to the motilin family.
Tissue SpecificityMainly expressed in the gastrointestinal tract with higher levels in the stomach, medium levels in the duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon. Low expression in the testis and brain. Not detected in the salivary gland, pancreas, liver and lung
Post translational modification O-n-octanoylation is essential for ghrelin activity (By similarity). The O-n-decanoylated form ghrelin-C10 differs in the length of the carbon backbone of the carboxylic acid bound to Ser- 26. Amidation of Leu-98 is essential for obestatin activity (By similarity).
