GCGR

Glucagon Receptor

GCGR (glucagon receptor) is in the G protein-coupled receptor family, that is important in controlling blood glucose levels. The glucagon receptor is a 62 kDa protein that is activated by glucagon and is a member of the class B G-protein coupled family of receptors, coupled to G alpha i, Gs and to a lesser extent G alpha q. Stimulation of the receptor results in activation of adenylate cyclase and increased levels of intracellular cAMP. In humans, the glucagon receptor is encoded by the GCGR gene. Glucagon receptors are mainly expressed in liver and in kidney with lesser amounts found in heart, adipose tissue, spleen, thymus, adrenal glands, pancreas, cerebral cortex, and gastrointestinal tract.

    (Met(O)27)-Glucagon (1-29) (human, rat, porcine)
    (Met(O)27)-Glucagon (1-29) (human, rat, porcine) is a modified glucagon. (Met(O)27)-Glucagon (1-29) (human, rat, porcine) has the same maximum glucose-synthesizing activity in rat hepatocytes as native glucagon, but it is less potent, suggesting a crucial role of methionine in the binding of glucagon to its hepatic receptor.
