第一個人工合成牛胰島素

Synthetic bovine insulin, which was fully developed in 1965 following 6 years of hard work by a group of Chinese scientists, was the first case of human beings synthesizing live proteins. This is the first time that zoetic protein has been synthesized by human in history. In the past it was a universal belief that man could by no means synthesize living body. The success made it possible for Chinese scientists to deflate the traditional concept. Synthetic bovine insulin marked a significant breakthrough in the fIeld of life science and has substantially influenced human endeavors in finding out the secrets of life.

1965年，我國的科學工作者經過6年多堅持不懈的努力，獲得了人工合成的牛胰島素結晶。這是世界上第一個人工合成的蛋白質。過去世界普遍認爲生命體是天然的，大都認爲人工合成生命體是不可能的，是中國人首次讓它變成可能。人工牛胰島素的合成，是生命科學領域的重大突破，對於人類探索生命奧祕的影響是巨大的。
