See also [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_lispro]. Insulin lispro is a manufactured form of human insulin where the amino acids lysine and proline have been switched at the end of the B chain of the insulin molecule. This switch of amino acids mimics [[Insulin-like growth factor 1]] which also has lysine and proline in that order. |
