Featured article: Ultra-high resolution X-ray structures of two forms of human recombinant insulin at 100 K Item

In this detailed study, Rex Palmer and colleagues present a comparison of the structures of two forms of human recombinant insulin, the commercially available Insugen and Intergen. The ultra-high resolution data presented in this study has implications for the biological activity of this protein, an essential medication for the treatment of diabetes.
