HMRbase accession number10581
Swiss-prot Accession numberP30814 (Sequence in FASTA format)
DescriptionCrustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH).
Source organismArmadillidium vulgare (Woodlice) (Pillbugs)
Taxonomical ClassificationEukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Peracarida; Isopoda; Oniscidea; Armadillidiidae;Armadillidium.
Subcellular locationSecreted protein
Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the arthropod CHH/MIH/GIH/VIH hormone family.
Tissue SpecificityProduced by the medulla terminalis X-organ in the eyestalks and transported to the sinus gland where they are stored and released. Found also in the brain; in the neuroendocrine structures of the protocerebrum
Post translational modificationN/A
FunctionHormone 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
