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 ...

  3. Fungal effectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fungal_effectors

    A diagram showing the infecting structures and effector delivery strategies of a model hemibiotrophic pathogen, Phytophthora infestans. Fungal effectors are proteins or non-proteinaceous molecules (such as RNAs or small molecules) secreted by pathogenic fungi into a host organism in order to modulate the host's immune response.

  4. Glucagon-like peptide-1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucagon-like_peptide-1

    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]

  5. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucagon-like_peptide-1...

    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.

  6. Plant genetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_genetics

    An image of multiple chromosomes, taken from many cells. Plant genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity specifically in plants. [1] [2] It is generally considered a field of biology and botany, but intersects frequently with many other life sciences and is strongly linked with the study of information systems.

  7. Carbohydrate metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_metabolism

    Glucagon in the liver stimulates glycogenolysis when the blood glucose is lowered, known as hypoglycemia. [12] The glycogen in the liver can function as a backup source of glucose between meals. [2] Liver glycogen mainly serves the central nervous system. Adrenaline stimulates the breakdown of glycogen in the skeletal muscle during exercise. [12]

  8. ABC model of flower development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABC_model_of_flower...

    ABC model of flower development guided by three groups of homeotic genes.. The ABC model of flower development is a scientific model of the process by which flowering plants produce a pattern of gene expression in meristems that leads to the appearance of an organ oriented towards sexual reproduction, a flower.
