Description: Glucagon is actually a preproprotein that is cleaved into four distinct mature peptides. One of these, glucagon, is a pancreatic hormone that counteracts the glucose-lowering action of insulin by stimulating glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Glucagon is a ligand for a specific G-protein linked receptor whose signalling pathway controls cell proliferation. Two of the other peptides are secreted from gut endocrine cells and promote nutrient absorption through distinct mechanisms. Finally, the fourth peptide is similar to glicentin, an active enteroglucagon.
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 119-148 from the human protein were used as the immunogen for the Glucagon antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the Glucagon antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
