| Description | Molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH). |
| Source organism | Cancer pagurus (Rock crab) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Pleocyemata; Brachyura;Eubrachyura; Cancroidea; Cancridae; Cancer. |
| Subcellular location | Secreted protein |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the arthropod CHH/MIH/GIH/VIH hormone family. |
| Tissue Specificity | N/A |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | Inhibits Y-organs where molting hormone (ecdysteroid) is secreted. A molting cycle is initiated when MIH secretion diminishes or stops. Has also significant hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) activity |
