Overview
From every molecule of proinsulin, one molecule of insulin plus one molecule of C-peptide are produced. C-peptide is released into the blood stream in equal amounts to insulin.
Specificity:
The mouse monoclonal antibody C-PEP-01 reacts specifically with C-peptide, a part of the proinsulin molecule. Proinsulin consists of three parts: C-peptide and two long strands of amino acids (alpha and beta chains; later become linked together to form the insulin molecule) . No cross-reactivity with insulin or other peptide hormones or proteins was observed.
