Evolution of the Insulin Gene: Changes in Gene Number, Sequence, and Processing

2 Apr 2021

Abstract excerpt

Insulin has not only made major contributions to the field of clinical medicine but has also played central roles in the advancement of fundamental molecular biology, including evolution. Insulin is essential for the health of vertebrate species, yet its function has been modified in species-specific manners. With the advent of genome sequencing, large numbers of insulin coding sequences have been identified in...
