Six folded subunits lock together in a rosette to form this insulin protein hexamer, the storage shape the hormone takes inside the pancreas. A small sphere at the very center marks the zinc ions that hold the ring together, while each subunit is built from clustered, bubbly lumps that mimic a space-filling molecular surface. The radial layout looks almost like a flower from above. Great for a biology or diabetes education lesson, a science teacher's desk, or a conversation piece on a lab shelf.
