specificity :
Recombinant Human Insulin (rHuInsulin)
purity :
Greater than 98% by RP-HPLC, anion-exchange chromatography; reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE, silver stain. Purification: Chromatographic
storage stability :
Lyophilized Insulin is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, but it is recommended that it is store desiccated at -20 degree C. After reconstitution, it can be stored at 4 degree C for 2-7 days but should be stored below -20 degree C after that. For long-term storage of reconstituted Insulin, it is recommended that a carrier protein (such as 0.1% HAS or BSA) is added.

ncbi summary :
After removal of the precursor signal peptide, proinsulin is post-translationally cleaved into three peptides: the B chain and A chain peptides, which are covalently linked via two disulfide bonds to form insulin, and C-peptide. Binding of insulin to the insulin receptor (INSR) stimulates glucose uptake. A multitude of mutant alleles with phenotypic effects have been identified. There is a read-through gene, INS-IGF2, which overlaps with this gene at the 5' region and with the IGF2 gene at the 3' region. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

uniprot summary :
Insulin: Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver. Heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two disulfide bonds. Belongs to the insulin family.
