The common precursor polypeptide of pancreatic GLUCAGON and intestinal GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDES. Proglucagon is the 158-amino acid segment of preproglucagon without the N-terminal signal sequence. Proglucagon is expressed in the PANCREAS; INTESTINES; and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. Posttranslational processing of proglucagon is tissue-specific yielding numerous bioactive peptides.
Proglucagon has been studied across 12 research domains including 🔥 Metabolic, 🧬 Hormones, 🦠 Gut & Microbiome, 🔬 Oncology, 🫁 Liver & Detox. The primary research focus is 🔥 Metabolic with 32% of studies addressing this area.
