Insulin I (Rat, Mouse)

CAS: 90092-10-7

Insulin is a peptide hormone that regulates blood glucose levels and promotes the uptake of glucose by cells. Insulin is produced in the pancreas and consists of 51 amino acids. It has a molecular weight of 5808 Da and consists of two chains, A (21-amino acid) and B (30-amino acid). The A chain is primarily responsible for insulin's activity, while the B chain improves its stability. Insulin binds to receptors on the cell surface, which activates an intracellular signaling cascade that subsequently leads to changes in gene expression. Insulin has been widely used as a research tool to study protein interactions, ligand binding, receptor activation, ion channel modulation, antibody production, and other cellular processes. Insulin I (Rat) is isolated from rat pancreas using a purification process that yields high purity insulin with minimal contaminating proteins or peptides. This product can be used in life science research applications such as pharmacology studies and antibody production.
