Motilin is a 22-amino acid peptide hormone expressed throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of humans and other species. It affects gastric motility by stimulating interdigestive antrum and duodenal contractions. The receptor protein is known as motilin receptor, derived from the gene MLNR (first identified as GPR38).
