I was quietly rebellious. My parents thought I was very good but secretly I did things like saying I was staying in one place and going somewhere else instead. My older sister was openly rebellious and would tell my parents where to go, but I never did that.

Human insulin differs from other mammalian types by having a different C-terminal amino acid on the B chain.
