Insulin(human) BiologicalActivity

DescriptionInsulin(human) is a peptide hormone that regulates the level of sugar (glucose) in the blood and that is produced by the beta cells of the pancreatic islets.
Related CatalogSignaling Pathways >>Protein Tyrosine Kinase/RTK >>Insulin ReceptorResearch Areas >>Metabolic DiseasePeptidesPeptides
In VitroThe human insulin gene contains two intervening sequences, one is within the region transcribed into the 5'-untranslated segment of the mRNA and the other interrupts the C-peptide encoding region[1]. Human insulin is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes[2].
