If it was directly transcribed there'd be regions that are important for making insulin and regions that are not.

如果直接转录的话,那被转录的序列中就会既包括了,和生成胰岛素有关的重要区域,也包括了与之无关的区域

Most cells in your body have insulin receptors so insulin is starting to bind to insulin receptors on those cells.

体内大多数细胞中都有胰岛素受体,胰岛素就开始与细胞上的胰岛素受体结合

So, it interacts with receptors called insulin receptors that are on cells that are sensitive to insulin.

它与细胞表面胰岛素受体相互作用,这些细胞对胰岛素很敏感

It gets enhanced because when insulin binds to the insulin receptor, it activates the receptor.

这种增强效应来自于,胰岛素与胰岛素受体结合后,就激活了该受体

Insulin binding leads to phosphorylation, leads to other biochemical changes.

胰岛素与受体结合导致磷酸化,进而产生其它生物化学变化

It has many of the opposite effects that insulin has, so not only does insulin go down and stop these behaviors but a new hormone called glucagon gets produced which reinforces that change.

它产生的很多效应都与胰岛素相反,所以不仅是胰岛素的减少,导致血糖水平停止下降,胰高血糖素这种新激素的产生,也会强化该效应

Insulin, the ligand binds to its receptor, creates a change through a kinase activity that's exposed, which leads to other biochemical changes, which leads to a change in cell behavior - in this case the cell behavior is that more glucose transporters are brought to the membrane and more glucose can enter the cell.

胰岛素,一种能够与受体结合的配体,通过其暴露出的激酶活性引起的变化,导致了其它后续生化变化的发生,进而使细胞行为发生改变,这个例子中的细胞行为就是,更多的糖载体被带到细胞膜表面,这样更多的糖分子进入到细胞内部

Those regions that are not are spliced out during RNA processing to form the mRNA transcript that's used to make the protein.

而这些与生成胰岛素无关的区域,在RNA剪接过程中就被剔除,从而生成转录蛋白质的mRNA
