Among the following insulin is not synthesised in the liver. Insulin is synthesized only in beta cells in the pancreas. The insulin mRNA is translated as a single chain precursor called preproinsulin which generate proinsulin.Urea production occurs in the liver and is regulated by N-acetylglutamate. Urea is transported to blood and excreted by the kidney as a component of urine. Bile or gall produced by the liver of most vertebrates that aids the digestion of lipids in the small intestine and stored in the gallbladder. Glycogen is synthesised by the liver which converts molecules in glucose.
