IGF1 and IGF2 specificities to the two insulin receptor isoforms are determined by insulin receptor amino acid 718.
METHODS:Alanine scan of insulin receptor (IR)-B exon 11 and site-directed mutagenesis of amino acid 718 in human IR-A and IR-B were performed. Ligand affinities to wild type and mutated receptors were studied by displacement of radioactive insulin in binding assay on secreted soluble midi receptors...
