Journal ArticleDOI

The Chromogranin–Secretogranin Family

TL;DR: The members of the chromogranin–secretogran in family of peptide hormones, biogenic amines, and neurotransmitters are enclosed within vesicles in the neuroendocrine system and a variety of neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel autocrine feedback control of catecholamine release. A discrete chromogranin a fragment is a noncompetitive nicotinic cholinergic antagonist.

TL;DR: This small domain within chromogranin A may contribute to a novel, autocrine, homeostatic (negative-feedback) mechanism controlling catecholamine release from chromaffin cells and neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Processing of chromogranin B in bovine adrenal medulla. Identification of secretolytin, the endogenous C-terminal fragment of residues 614-626 with antibacterial activity.

TL;DR: The structural features of the proteolytic degradation mechanism of chromogranin B/secretOGranin I have been characterized with regard to the possible function of this protein as a precursor of biologically active peptides, and a peptide secretolytin is proposed to name.
