It raises the concentration of glucose and fatty acids in the bloodstream and is considered to be the main catabolic hormone of the body. It is also used as a medication ...
The presence of the GUS-induced color indicates where the gene has been actively expressed. In this way, strong promoter activity produces much staining and weak promoter activity produces less staining. The uidA gene can also be fused to a gene of interest, creating a gene fusion. The insertion of the uidA gene will cause production of GUS ...
This is why glucagon has been known for decades as a counter-regulatory hormone. [12] When blood glucose levels are low, the pancreas secretes glucagon, which in turn causes the liver to convert stored glycogen polymers into glucose monomers, which is then released into the blood. This process is called glycogenolysis.
In 1982, they published their discovery that the gene for proglucagon actually codes for three peptides: glucagon and two novel peptides. [27] Those two novel peptides were later isolated, identified, and investigated by other researchers, and are now known as glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon-like peptide-2. [27]

The glucagon receptor family [1] is a group of closely related G-protein coupled receptors which include: Glucagon receptor; Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor; Glucagon-like peptide 2 receptor; Gastric inhibitory polypeptide receptor
The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) found on beta cells of the pancreas and on neurons of the brain. It is involved in the control of blood sugar level by enhancing insulin secretion. In humans it is synthesised by the gene GLP1R, which is present on chromosome 6.
