That is the main routes of insulin in cell

Rough ER→ transport vesicles→Golgi apparatus→ transport vesicles→ cell membrane

Explanation:

First, the insulin will be packaged in a membrane from the rough ER and released. It will head to the golgi apparatus where the molecules will be modified and repackaged. Then the insulin will leave the cell through exocytosis.
