General Description

"(Met(O)27)-Glucagon (1-29) (Human, Bovine, Porcine)" is a chemically modified form of the hormone glucagon, which is naturally produced in animals like humans, cows (bovine), and pigs (porcine). The main purpose of glucagon is to control glucose metabolism in the body by stimulating the liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose when blood sugar levels drop. The "Met(O)27" part of the name signifies that the methionine residue at position 27 is oxidized, which can alter the hormone's function or stability. This chemically modified version of glucagon may be used in scientific research, particularly in studies related to diabetes, a condition characterized by imbalances in blood glucose levels.
