| Type: | Conserved_site | Name: | Insulin, conserved site |
| Description: | Insulin is involved in the regulation of normal glucose homeostasis, as well as other specific physiological functions []. It is synthesised as a prepropeptide from which an endoplasmic reticulum-targeting sequence is cleaved to yield proinsulin. Prosinsulin contains regions A and B separated by an intervening connecting region C. The connecting region is cleaved, liberating the active protein, which contains the A and B chains,held together by 2 disulphide bonds []. | Short Name: | Insulin_CS |
