DNA
The triplet codes needed to specify a specific polypeptide chain are found in the mRNA (messenger RNA) during the process of translation. These triplet codes, known as codons, determine the sequence of amino acids that will be incorporated into the polypeptide chain.
Amino acids that are not part of a polypeptide are typically found in the cytoplasm of a cell. They are either freshly synthesized by ribosomes or recycled from proteins that have been degraded.
Protein synthesis occurs on ribosomes within the cell. Ribosomes can be found in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosomes read the mRNA template and assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain.
Proteins are made up of amino acids, which are connected together in a specific sequence to form a polypeptide chain. There are 20 different types of amino acids that can be found in proteins, each with their own unique side chain. The sequence of amino acids in a protein determines its structure and function.
Scientists found the human gene that makes insulin by using recombinant DNA technology to clone and sequence the gene. They identified the gene by comparing it to the insulin genes of other species and then inserting the human gene into bacteria to produce insulin for medical use.

Human Insulin, is a replica of the insulin found naturally in human beings. These are synthetically prepared. An insulin analogue however is an altered form of this human insulin, by addition,subsitution or substraction of one/or more amino acid chain/s. This is done to make insulin more safe and effective for human use.
Proteins are primarily made in the ribosomes of cells, which can be found in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. The process of protein synthesis involves transcription of DNA into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus, followed by translation of the mRNA into a polypeptide chain at the ribosomes. This chain then folds into a functional protein.
Insulin
It means the amount of insulin found in the watery part of the blood called serum.
on the outer surface of the target cell

Insulin is made by the islet cells in the pancreas. These are the endocrine cells found in the pancreas.

Insulin needs potassium to get into the cells.Glucagon is needed to bring your sugar up.
