Marker

beta-Cell & Insulinoma Marker

Specificity

Recognizes a polypeptide which is identified as insulin, a 51-amino acid polypeptide composed of A and B chains connected through the C-peptide. Proinsulin, which has very little biological activity, is cleaved by proteases within its cell of origin into the insulin molecule and the C-terminal basic residue. Insulin enhances membrane transport of glucose, amino acids, and certain ions. It also promotes glycogen storage, formation of triglycerides, and synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Deficiency of insulin results in diabetes mellitus. The main storage site for insulin is the pancreatic islets. Antibodies to insulin are important as beta-cell and insulinoma marker.

Background: Insulin

After removal of the precursor signal peptide, proinsulin is post-translationally cleaved into two chains (peptide A and peptide B) that are covalently linked via two disulfide bonds. Binding of this mature form of insulin to the insulin receptor (INSR) stimulates glucose uptake. A variety of mutant alleles with changes in the coding region 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. (provided by RefSeq)

FAQs for Insulin Antibody (SPM531) [Allophycocyanin]

Showing  1 - 1 of 1 FAQ Showing All

  • Q: Will you please recommend me antibodies to insulin, the most suitable for immunohistochemistry in the pancreas of guinea pigs? Desirable to be conjugated with some pigment and there was no need for secondary antibodies.

    A:

    I have carried out a search and the best antibody I recommend is NB600-1488. This is a primary unconjugated antibody however and you will need a secondary. If you click on the product link and then click on related products, a list of all recommended secondary antibodies will appear.
