Assertion: The proinsulin contains an extra stretch called as C-peptide
Reason :Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chans A & B that are linked together by disulphide bridges

Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains: chain A and chain B, that are linked together by

Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains: chain A and chain B, that are linked together by

Insulin consists of two short ploypeptide chains: chain A and chain B, that are linked together by

Which of the following statement/s is/are wrong? I. Biotechnology deals with industrial scale production of biopharmaceuticals and biologicals using genetically modified microbes, fungi, plants and animals. II. Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains: chain A and chain B, that are linked together by disulphide bridges. III. C peptide is not present in the mature insulin and is removed during maturation proinsulin into insulin. IV. The recombinant therapeutics induce unwanted immunological responses. V. For effective treatment of a disease, early diagnosis and understanding its pathophysiology is very important.

True or False. Insulin consists of three short polypeptide chains i.e., chain A, chain B and chain C.

With regard to insulin choose correct option. (a) C-peptide is not present in mature insulin (b) The insulin produced by rDNA technology had C-peptide (c)The pro-insulin has C-peptide (d) A-peptide and B-peptide of insulin are interconnected by disulphide bridges

Insulin consists of 2 polypeptide chains, such as chain A and chain B. C peptide is absent in mature insulin Give reason.

Assertion: In mammals including humans insulins is synthesised as a pro hormone which contains an extra stretch called the c peptide Reason: Like a pro enzyme the pro homone also need to be processed before it become a fully meture and functional hormone

Assertion : All immunoglobulin molecules have a basic structure compsed of four polypeptide chains. Reason : The polypeptide chains consists two identical heavy and light chain connected by disulphide bonds.
