PORCINE DESB1-2 DESPENTAPEPTIDE(B26-B30) INSULIN
Overview
Insulin has a concentration of 10(-8)-10(-11) M in the blood which ensures, that it circulates and exerts its physiological functions in vivo as a, monomer. The crystal structure of monomeric porcine desB1-B2, despentapeptide (B26-B30) insulin (DesB1-2 DPI) with M(r) = 4934 Da has, been determined at 1.65 A resolution using the molecular replacement, method. A structural comparison between DesB1-2 DPI and 2Zn insulin, reveals that the conformation of DesB1-2 DPI is more similar to molecule I, than molecule II of 2Zn insulin. The remarkable conformational difference, between B25-Phe in DesB1-2 DPI and B25-Phe in despentapeptide (B26-B30), insulin (DPI) indicates that the residue B25-Phe possesses great, flexibility and mobility.
