Developmental StageN/A
Similarity Belongs to the arthropod PDH family.
Tissue SpecificityEyestalk sinus gland

DescriptionCrustacean hyperglycemic hormones A precursor (CHH A) [Contains: CHHprecursor-related peptide A (CPRP A); Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone(CHH)].
Source organismOrconectes limosus (Spinycheek crayfish)
Taxonomical ClassificationEukaryota; Metazoa; Arthropoda; Crustacea; Malacostraca;Eumalacostraca; Eucarida; Decapoda; Pleocyemata; Astacidea;Astacoidea; Cambaridae; Orconectes; Faxonius.
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
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
