Description | Crustacean hyperglycemic hormones A precursor (CHH A) [Contains: CHHprecursor-related peptide A (CPRP A); Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone(CHH)]. |
Source organism | Orconectes limosus (Spinycheek crayfish) |
Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Pleocyemata; Astacidea;Astacoidea; Cambaridae; Orconectes; Faxonius. |
Subcellular location | Secreted protein |
Developmental Stage | N/A |
Similarity | Belongs to the arthropod CHH/MIH/GIH/VIH hormone family. |
Tissue Specificity | Produced by the medulla terminalis X-organ in the eyestalks and transported to the sinus gland where they are stored and released |
Post translational modification | N/A |
Function | Hormone found in the sinus gland of isopods and decapods which controls the blood sugar level. Has a secretagogue action over the amylase released from the midgut gland. May act as a stress hormone and may be involved in the control of molting and reproduction |
