SSome scientists call protein a small peptides, that is, molecules with less than 25 amino acids. However, a typical small and very important protein is the insulin. This protein is crucial for the metabolism to regulate glucose in blood stream. Insulin is formed by two amino acid chains called A chain (21 residues) and B chain (30 residues), with small variants within mammal species.
