Human Gut Hormone Ghrelin (28) (Sequence Lacks Stop Codon, but part possesses it)

Stimulates appetite to increases human food intake by up to 30% and promote fat storage by acting on the hypothalamus. Also has protective effects on the cardiovascular system and plays a role in regulating insulin levels. Mostly secreted by the stomach, but also the small intestine, pancreas, and brain. To be used in projects focusing on gut hormones, appetite, or peptide secreting microbiomes.

Below is a blot characterizing this part. The left column of dots are cell lysates. The right column are dots of the cellular supernatant. However, as this part lacks a secretion signal peptide, we, rightfully, see no protein product within the supernatant.
