CC   -!- FUNCTION: Glucagon plays a key role in glucose metabolism and
CC       homeostasis. Regulates blood glucose by increasing gluconeogenesis and
CC       decreasing glycolysis (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- INDUCTION: Produced in the A cells of the islets of Langerhans in
CC       response to a drop in blood sugar concentration. {ECO:0000250}.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glucagon family. {ECO:0000305}.
