Receptor binding affinity (EC??, Human) = ~0.135 nM GLP-1 Receptor (GLP-1R) Agonism Stimulates glucose-dependent insulin secretion: Enhances insulin release and lowers glucagon during hyperglycemia 1
A Peptide Encoded by Mitochondrial DNA MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded not by the nuclear genome but by mitochondrial DNA
