CC -!- FUNCTION: [Glucagon]: Plays a key role in glucose metabolism and
CC homeostasis. Regulates blood glucose by increasing gluconeogenesis and
CC decreasing glycolysis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P01275}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Produced in the A cells of the islets of Langerhans in
CC response to a drop in blood sugar concentration.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: X's in the sequence were included by homology with other
CC species sequences.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glucagon family. {ECO:0000305}.
