“…3) The intracellular trafficking of proinsulin through the Golgi apparatus to secretory granules allows it to be proteolytically processed by prohormone convertases (PC1/3 and PC2) and carboxypeptidase E (CPE) to form C peptide and mature insulin, which are stored in insulin-secretory granules and released upon stimulation [16][17][18].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
