Recombinant Human Insulin
Product Specifications
Background
Insulin is a peptide hormone with 51 amino acids that plays a crucial role in regulating glucose homeostasis, cell growth, and metabolism . It is produced by the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas and is secreted in response to elevated blood glucose levels, such as after a meal . Insulin is synthesized as a prohormone called preproinsulin, which consists of 110 amino acids. This is processed to proinsulin, which includes the A-chain, B-chain, and C-peptide, and is then further processed to the active form of insulin with the removal of the C-peptide.
