The antibody reacts specifically against insulin by RIA and immunocytochemistry. It exhibits cross-reactivity with human proinsulin. The antibody binds to insulin with an affinity constant of 8.8 × 109 M-1 in RIA.
The insulin gene is mapped to human chromosome 11p15.5.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-Insulin antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunoblotting assay and ELISA.
Monoclonal Anti-Insulin antibody produced in mouse was used in ELISA-based protein pin array assay to study the interactions between human αB crystalline and insulin. It was used for flow cytometric analysis of rat white blood cells and mast cells.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Insulin is a major regulatory hormone important in the metabolic processes, transport of glucose, amino acids and certain ions. It is also involved in the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins. The biological effects of insulin are mediated by insulin receptor and it integrates multiple major signaling pathways.

The biological effects of insulin are mediated by insulin receptor and it integrates multiple major signaling pathways. Abnormal insulin secretion or function leads to diabetes mellitus, obesity and other carbohydrate metabolism disorders. Insulin is known to stimulate cell division.

Pancreatic β-cell dysfunction is hypothesized to be the significant determinant of gestational diabetes pathogenesis, however pancreatic samples from patients are scarce. This study reports a novel mouse model of gestational glucose intolerance in pregnancy, originating from previous nutrition restriction in
We investigated four insulin-specific hybridoma antibodies with respect to their kinetic properties as well as the binding behaviour of some combinations of them. From equilibrium binding data all but one antibodies were shown to bear homogeneous binding sites. They revealed
