Abstract
The invention provides materials and methods for promoting weight loss or preventing weight gain and for treating diabetes and associated metabolic disorders. In particular, the invention provides novel glucagon analogue peptide compounds effective in such methods. The compounds may mediate their effect by having, for example, increased selectivity for the GLP-1 receptor compared to human glucagon.
