Structured_description Provisional_description ins-24 encodes an insulin-like peptide of the insulin superfamily of proteins (OMIM:176730, 147440); INS-24 is one of 38 insulin-like peptides in C. elegans, but as loss of INS-24 function via RNA-mediated interference does not result in any abnormalities, the precise role of INS-24 in C. elegans development is not yet clear.

Like the mitogenic stimulators IGF-I and IGF-II, INS-24 does not contain the internal C peptide that is proteolytically cleaved from insulin, a metabolic regulator.
