The efficiency of insulin production and its content in insulin-expressing model β-cells correlate with their Zn(2+) levels
Insulin is produced and stored inside the pancreatic β-cell secretory granules, where it is assumed to form Zn(2+)-stabilized oligomers. However, the actual storage forms of this hormone and the impact of zinc ions on insulin production in vivo are not known. Our initial X-ray fluorescence experimen...
