These hormones are crucial for digestion, appetite regulation, and nutrient absorption without known deficiency disorders. Their functions encompass gastric secretion, insulin release, and appetite suppression.

Their structure, including primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary forms, is crucial for functionality, with molecular chaperones aiding proper folding. Disruption of structure leads to denaturation, impacting activities like enzymatic reactions. Mutations can lead to diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob.
