Target Information
Rat insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by the beta cells of the pancreatic islets. It regulates carbohydrate, protein, and lipid metabolism by enhancing glucose uptake and storage in tissues. Rat insulin is a 51-amino acid polypeptide derived from proinsulin, which is cleaved into two chains (A and B) linked by disulfide bonds. Insulin deficiency can result in diabetes mellitus, while insulin resistance is associated with type 2 diabetes.
