GtoPdb Ligand ID: 7572

Synonyms: HOE-901 | HOE901 | Lantus®
Approved drug
insulin glargine is an approved drug (FDA and EMA (2000))
Compound class: Peptide
Comment: Insulin glargine is a recombinant, modified analogue of human insulin. The chemical structure shown here was generated using the SMILES from PubChem CID 44146714.

A number of insulin glargine biosimilars have been approved internationally since the expiration of patents on Lantus® in 2014: a comprehensive list that is maintained by the Generics and Biosimilar Initiative (https://www.gabionline.net) is available here. The first fully interchangeable biosimilar to be FDA approved was Semglee® (insulin glargine-yfgn; Mylan Pharmaceuticals), in July 2021.

2D Structure

An image of the ligand's 2D structure. For small molecules with SMILES these are drawn using the NCI/CADD Chemical Identifier Resolver. Click on the image to access the chemical structure search tool with the ligand pre-loaded in the structure editor. For other types of ligands, e.g. longer nucleotides and peptides, a manually drawn representation of the molecule may be provided.

SMILES / InChI / InChIKey

SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) A specification for unambiguously describing the structure of chemical molecules using short ASCII strings. Canonical SMILES specify a unique representation of the 2D structure without chiral or isotopic specifications. Isomeric SMILES include chiral specification and isotopes.

Standard InChI (IUPAC International Chemical Identifier) and InChIKey InChI is a non-proprietary, standard, textual identifier for chemical substances designed to facilitate linking of information and database searching. An InChIKey is a simplified version of a full InChI, designed for easier web searching.
