Recombinant Human IGF1R protein, His-Avi-tagged

• Cat.No.: IGF1R-169H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human IGF1R Protein is expressed from mammalian with a poly-His and Avi tag at the C-terminal. It contains Met1-Asn932.

Specification

• Description: IGF-I receptor is a disulfide-linked heterotetrameric transmembrane protein consisting of two alpha and two beta subunits. Both the alpha and beta subunits are encoded within a single receptor precursor cDNA. Binds IGF1 with high affinity and IGF2 and insulin (INS) with a lower affinity. The activated IGF1R is involved in cell growth and survival control. IGF1R is crucial for tumor transformation and survival of malignant cell. Ligand binding activates the receptor kinase, leading to receptor autophosphorylation, and tyrosines phosphorylation of multiple substrates, that function as signaling adapter proteins including, the insulin-receptor substrates (IRS1/2), Shc and 14-3-3 proteins.
