Subcellular Location | Secreted |
Developmental Stage | NA |
Similarity | Belongs to the glucagon family. |
Tissue Specificity | NA |
Post Translational Modification | Proglucagon is posttranslationally processed in a tissue- specific manner in pancreatic A cells and intestinal L cells. In pancreatic A cells; the major bioactive hormone is glucagon cleaved by PCSK2/ |
Function | Glucagon plays a key role in glucose metabolism and homeostasis. Regulates blood glucose by increasing gluconeogenesis and decreasing glycolysis |
