उत्तर
C-peptide of human insulin is removed during maturation of pro-insulin to insulin.
Explanation:
Insulin is synthesized as a pro-hormone in mammals, including humans, and must be processed before it becomes a fully developed and functioning hormone. It has an additional stretch known as the C peptide, which is eliminated during insulin maturation.
