Gastrin plays a central role in the regulation of gastric acid secretion. The major molecular form of biologically active gastrin is a carboxyl-terminally amidated heptadecapeptide (G-17) produced from a larger precursor (progastrin) in neuroendocrine G-cells. These cells are found in the gastric antral mucosa, the small and large intestinal mucosa, and the central nervous system. Gastrin-producing cells process progastrin via several intermediates as the peptide is sorted from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through the Golgi stack to secretory vesicles. Processing enzymes are compartmentalized to different organelles and perform numerous reactions, including signal peptide cleavage, tyrosine-0-sulfation, dibasic cleavage, and carboxyl-terminal cu-amidation (15, 16). These reactions are common to the processing of many neuroendocrine peptide hormones. Although peptide hormone biosynthesis and release can be controlled at several different levels, the observation that various tissues containing G-cells store and release different molecular forms of gastrin suggests the importance of posttranslational processing mechanisms in regulating endocrine cells. Differences in peptide processing may have profound importance not only in normal physiology but also in pathological conditions.
