The INS gene provides instructions for producing the hormone insulin, which is made and secreted by specialized cells in the pancreas called beta cells. Insulin helps move glucose, also called blood sugar, from the blood into cells, where it is converted into energy. Glucose is a simple sugar and the primary energy source for most cells in the body.
Normal function
The INS gene provides instructions for producing the hormone insulin, which is made and secreted by specialized cells in the pancreas called beta cells. Insulin helps move glucose, also called blood sugar, from the blood into cells, where it is converted into energy. Glucose is a simple sugar and the primary energy source for most cells in the body.
The precursor to insulin is called proinsulin, which consists of a single chain of protein building blocks (amino acids). The proinsulin chain is cut (cleaved) to form individual pieces called A and B chains. These chains are joined together by connections called disulfide bonds to form insulin.

Diabetes tipo 1
Type 1 diabetes is the type of diabetes that typically develops in children and in young adults. In type 1 diabetes the body stops making insulin and the blood sugar (glucose) level goes very high. Treatment to control the blood glucose level is with insulin injections and a healthy diet. The type or types of resistencia a la insulina advised will be tailored to.
