| Tissue Specificity | Detected in cerebrospinal fluid and urine (at protein level). |
| Post Translational Modifications | The precursor is cleaved by proteases to produce a number of active cholecystokinins. Cholecystokinin-5: The precursor is cleaved by ACE, which removes the Gly-Arg-Arg peptide at the C-terminus, leading to mature hormone. |
| Function | This peptide hormone induces gall bladder contraction and the release of pancreatic enzymes in the gut. Its function in the brain is not clear. Binding to CCK-A receptors stimulates amylase release from the pancreas, binding to CCK-B receptors stimulates gastric acid secretion. |
