Mouse anti-Human Insulin Monoclonal Antibody | anti-INS antibody
Insulin (ILPR, Insulin, IRDN) (MaxLight 490)
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(Immunohistochemistry Analysis: Fig. 1 Paraffin-embedded human pancreas tissue was prepared using heat-induced epitope retrieval in citrate buffer, pH 6.0. Immunostaining was performed using a 1.25 ug/mL concentration of I7660-09C. Reactivity was detected using the IHC-Select Detection kit. Staining pattern appears as expected. Fig.2 Negative control staining of human pancreas tissue was prepared using heat-induced epitope retrieval in citrate buffer, pH 6.0. Negative control reagent was used in place of the antibody. Same detection method was used as in figure one. No signal detected.)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
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 Description
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.
