Sanger, F.

Insulin was discovered in 1921 by F. G. Banting and CH. Best in pancreatic extracts as a hypoglycemic substance. In 1926, J. Abel succeeded in crystallizing it, and in 1955, F. Sanger revealed its amino acid sequence. Insulin was the first protein whose amino acid sequence was determined.

From [Chemistry]

...Amino acid and protein chemistry, which was also started by Fisher, was developed with the introduction of paper chromatography and the invention of end-group analysis. Frederick Sanger (1918- ) succeeded in determining the amino acid sequence of insulin by making full use of the end-group labeling method with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene. This procedure was gradually automated, while the synthesis of polypeptides was also carried out with high selectivity by the solid-phase synthesis method of Merrifield and others. ...
