CC -!- FUNCTION: Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases
CC cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It
CC accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen
CC synthesis in liver.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two
CC disulfide bonds.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the insulin family. {ECO:0000305}.
