Cat#:PA-2765F;Product Name:Rabbit Anti-Human GCG Antibody;Synonym:GCG; glucagon; GLP1; GLP2; GRPP;Background:The protein encoded by this gene 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.;Description:Rabbit Anti-Human GCG Polyclonal Antibody;Formulation:Liquid Solution;Host Species:Goat;Species Reactivity:Human;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and freeze at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles;Usage:For Lab Research Use Only;
