The insulin A and B chains contain sufficient structural information to form the native molecule.

C C Wang1, C L Tsou.   

Abstract

Refolding studies show that native insulin can be reformed from A and B chains only. This suggests that the A and B chains contain the necessary structural information and that the C peptide is not required for this process.
