Summary
CHGA (chromogranin A, HGNC:1929) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 14q32.12, encoding Chromogranin-A (P10645). Strongly inhibits glucose induced insulin release from the pancreas.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the chromogranin/secretogranin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. It is found in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells. This gene product is a precursor to three biologically active peptides; vasostatin, pancreastatin, and parastatin. These peptides act as autocrine or paracrine negative modulators of the neuroendocrine system. Two other peptides, catestatin and chromofungin, have antimicrobial activity and antifungal activity, respectively. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Strongly inhibits glucose induced insulin release from the pancreas. Inhibits catecholamine release from chromaffin cells and noradrenergic neurons by acting as a non-competitive nicotinic cholinergic antagonist. Displays antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria S.aureus and M.luteus, and Gram-negative bacteria E.coli and P.aeruginosa. Can induce mast cell migration, degranulation and production of cytokines and chemokines. Acts as a potent scavenger of free radicals in vitro. May play a role in the regulation of cardiac function and blood pressure. Regulates granule biogenesis in endocrine cells by up-regulating the transcription of protease nexin 1 (SERPINE2) via a cAMP-PKA-SP1 pathway. This leads to inhibition of granule protein degradation in the Golgi complex which in turn promotes granule formation.
Subunit / interactions. Self-interacts; self-assembly is promoted in vitro by chondroitin sulfate attachment which occurs at mildly acidic pH conditions. Interacts with SCG3. Interacts with ITPR1 in the secretory granules.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Secretory vesicle Cytoplasmic vesicle. Secretory vesicle. Neuronal dense core vesicle.
Tissue specificity. Detected in cerebrospinal fluid (at protein level). Detected in urine (at protein level). Found in the brain.
Post-translational modifications. Sulfated on tyrosine residues and/or contains sulfated glycans. O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans. Contains chondroitin sulfate (CS); CS attachment is pH-dependent, being observed at mildly acidic conditions of pH 5 but not at neutral pH, and promotes self-assembly in vitro. Proteolytic processing gives rise to an additional longer form of catestatin (residues 358-390) which displays a less potent catecholamine release-inhibitory activity. Plasmin-mediated proteolytic processing can give rise to additional shorter and longer forms of catestatin peptides.
Miscellaneous. Binds calcium with a low-affinity.
Similarity. Belongs to the chromogranin/secretogranin protein family.
