DEFINITION

Insulin receptor (1382 aa, ~156 kDa) is encoded by the human INSR gene. This protein plays a role in both signal transduction and glucose homeostasis.

DesignNote

Insulin receptor is cleaved to generate and alpha chain and a beta chain. The mature receptor is a tetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta chains linked by disulfide bonds. The alpha chains contribute to the formation of the ligand-binding domain, while the beta chains carry the kinase domain. (UniProt)
