Target Information
Rat glucagon is a peptide hormone produced by the alpha cells of the pancreatic islets. It consists of 29 amino acids and plays a crucial role in maintaining glucose homeostasis by promoting glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in the liver. Glucagon acts through the glucagon receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor, which activates adenylate cyclase and increases intracellular cAMP levels. This hormone is essential for counteracting hypoglycemia and regulating energy metabolism.
