Peptide hormones are a class of hormones whose molecules are peptides, consisting of short chains of amino acids. They are synthesized in cells from amino acids according to mRNA transcripts, which are synthesized from DNA templates inside the cell nucleus . Peptide hormones can be classified into various types based on their structure and function, including insulin, glucagon, growth hormone, and oxytocin .
Peptide hormones exhibit several key biological properties:
Peptide hormones play crucial roles in various biological functions:
