SUCCINYLATED GLUCAGON: PREPARATION, SOME PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND HORMONAL ACTION

 

B. PANIJPAN and P. YAMARAT

Summary: A succinylated derivative of glucagon has been prepared and its purity is established. It is much more soluble than glucagon at neutral pH and has a pI of about 3.3. Proton magnetic resonance studies clearly show its existence as a random coil. Its adenyl cyclase stimulatory activity is about 40-50% of that of glucagon.
