The method comprises the following specific steps:
step 1, carrying out room temperature reaction on insulin and S-acetylthio acetic acid succinimide ester (SATA, purchased from Thermo), and dialyzing and purifying (by-products are small molecules which can permeate a dialysis bag, and large molecules of insulin-SH-P which cannot permeate the dialysis bag, and by-products can be removed by means of multiple dialysis) to obtain insulin-SH-P, wherein the reaction formula is as follows:
