Fred Sanger in Cambridge, England, starts work on discovering the protein structure of insulin and also working out the 'genetic blueprint' (plan) that cells use in order to make insulin.

The protein IGFBP7, which is secreted from the liver and has been studied in relation to heart failure and kidney damage, turns out to affect insulin secretion in type 2 diabetes.

The sequence of amino acids in the chain determines how the chain will fold up to make the protein, so different ... in the blood to target cells Insulin: released from pancreas, stimulates ...
