[Bioactive "enteroglucagon" (oxyntomodulin): evidence for a C-terminal extension of the glucagon molecule]. 1981

D Bataille, and K Tatemoto, and A M Coudray, and G Rosselin, and V Mutt

The bioactive fraction of "enteroglucagon" has been isolated from the porcine jejuno-ileum on the basis of its glucagon-like action in liver. High performance liquid chromatography analysis followed by Dansylation of peptide fragments obtained after enzymatic digestion of both this peptide and glucagon suggests that the bioactive "enteroglucagon" contains the glucagon molecule plus a C-terminal extension under the from of the octapeptide. Lys-Arg-Asn-Lys-Asn-Asn-Ile-Ala-COOH. The presence in the native molecular of a structural difference of modification as compared to glucagon in the 1-11 fragment is possible.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007082 Ileum The distal and narrowest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between the JEJUNUM and the ILEOCECAL VALVE of the LARGE INTESTINE.
D007583 Jejunum The middle portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between DUODENUM and ILEUM. It represents about 2/5 of the remaining portion of the small intestine below duodenum. Jejunums

D004763 Glucagon-Like Peptides Peptides derived from proglucagon which is also the precursor of pancreatic GLUCAGON. Despite expression of proglucagon in multiple tissues, the major production site of glucagon-like peptides (GLPs) is the INTESTINAL L CELLS. GLPs include glucagon-like peptide 1, glucagon-like peptide 2, and the various truncated forms.

D005934 Glucagon A 29-amino acid pancreatic peptide derived from proglucagon which is also the precursor of intestinal GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDES. Glucagon is secreted by PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS and plays an important role in regulation of BLOOD GLUCOSE concentration, ketone metabolism, and several other biochemical and physiological processes.
