Following is the primary structure of glucagon, a polypeptide hormone of 29 amino acids. Glucagon is produced in the a-cells of the pancreas and helps maintain blood glucose levels in a normal concentration range. 10 15 20 25 His-Ser-Glu-Gly-Thr-Phe-Thr-Ser-Asp-Tyr-Ser-Lys-Tyr-Leu-Asp-Ser-Arg-Arg-Ala-Gln-Asp-Phe-Val-Gln-Trp-Leu-Met-Asn-Thr Which peptide bonds are hydrolyzed when this polypeptide is treated with reagent?
