'''Glucagon''' (GLC) is a hormone which raises blood glucose level. GLC causes the liver to convert glycogen to glucose. GLC effect is opposite to that of insulin<ref>PMID:21824265</ref>. See some details in [[User:Mary Ball/Glucagon]].

Cells sense the presence of glucogon through the glucagon receptor, a G-protein coupled receptor. In solution, glucogon adopts various conformation but is mostly helical when bound to the receptor <ref>PMID:29300013</ref>. See some details in [[User:Mary Ball/Glucagon]].
