Chromogranin-A (CgA) or parathyroid secretory protein 1 is encoded in the human by the gene CHGA. Cga is a member of the granin family of neuroendocrine secretory proteins. As such, it is located in secretory vesicles of neurons and endocrine cells such as islet beta cell secretory granules in the pancreas.[5]
