Target Information

INSR is a receptor tyrosine kinase. Binding of insulin to the extracellular domain of INSR stimulates glucose uptake. INSR and IGF-1 receptors share major structural and functional similarity. The earliest cellular response to insulin stimulation is autophosphorylation of tyrosine in INSR. In humans, the INSR gene is located on chromosome 19. Defects in INSR are the cause of various insulin resistance syndromes and IGF-1R defects may also cause some forms of growth retardation.
