chromogranin-A; CgA; secretogranin-A; pituitary secretory protein I; SP-I; contains: vasostatin-1; vasostatin-2; EA-92; ES-43; pancreastatin; SS-18; WA-8; WE-14; LF-19; AL-11; GV-19; GR-44; ER-37 (CHGA)

Function: - pancreastatin strongly inhibits glucose induced insulin release from the pancreas - sulfated on Tyr &/or contains sulfated glycans - O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans - interacts with SCG3 (putative) Structure: - belongs to the chromogranin/secretogranin protein family Compartment: - cytoplasmic vesicle - secretory vesicle lumen, secretory vesicle membrane (putative) - secreted; associated with secretory granule membrane through interaction with SCG3 that in turn binds to cholesterol- enriched lipid rafts (putative) Expression: - widespread distribution in endocrine organs - originally found in adrenal medulla - present in alpha cells of pancreatic islets Notes: binds Ca+2 with a low-affinity
