Really interesting video on how "glucose sensing" insulin works. Basically there is a synthetic lectin attached to the insulin molecule that will bind to glucose in the body, and when there is not enough, will bind to the insulin molecule itself. #T1D #Biology 🧬 🧪 www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVTS...

To be clear, the video labels this new insulin a “cure”, and insulin is not a cure for #T1D. It is just a treatment. None the less if you can look past the click bait title, it has some nifty animations on how this new type of insulin works.
