| Description | Appetite-regulating hormone precursor (Growth hormone secretagogue)(Growth hormone-releasing peptide) (Motilin-related peptide)[Cleaved into- - Ghrelin; Obestatin]. |
| Organism | Felis silvestris catus |
| Txonomy | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Carnivora; Feliformia; Felidae;Felinae; Felis. |
| Subcellular Location | Secreted |
| Developmental Stage | NA |
| Similarity | Belongs to the motilin family. |
| Tissue Specificity | NA |
| Post Translational Modification | O-n-octanoylation is essential for ghrelin activity. Amidation of Leu-98 is essential for obestatin activity. |
| Function | Obestatin may be the ligand for GPR39. May have an appetite-reducing effect resulting in decreased food intake. May reduce gastric emptying activity and jejunal motility. |
