CCKBR-Gastrin Stimulated Signaling

Description:

Gastrin is the primary hormone that induces gastric acid secretion. In humans, the gene encoding for gastrin is located on chromosome 17q21. This hormone is produced by the G-cells of the antrum of stomach as preprogastrin, which comprises of 101 amino acids and is cleaved between Ala-21 and Ser-22 to yield progastrin.Gastrin interacts with the membrane-bound G-protein coupled cholecystokinin receptor group consisting of CCKAR(Cholecystokinin A receptor) and CCKBR(Cholecystokinin B receptor).
