The Activation Mechanism of the Insulin Receptor: A Structural Perspective

Eunhee Choi et al.

Summary: The insulin receptor (IR) is a type II receptor tyrosine kinase that plays crucial roles in metabolism, growth, and proliferation. Recent advances in cryo-electron microscopy have allowed the determination of IR structures with different numbers of bound insulin molecules, providing important insights into the activation mechanism of this receptor. This review summarizes the insulin-induced activation mechanism of IR, including the binding modes and functions of insulin at different sites, as well as the structural transitions necessary for IR activation. It also highlights key aspects of IR signaling activation and regulation and suggests future research directions to fill the remaining gaps in our understanding.

Leucine-973 is a crucial residue differentiating insulin and IGF-1 receptor signaling

Hirofumi Nagao et al.

Summary: Insulin and IGF-1 receptors have similar signaling systems but different physiological roles. Replacement of leucine-973 in the intracellular juxtamembrane region with phenylalanine resulted in altered signaling, decreased insulin sensitivity, increased cell growth, and impaired receptor internalization. This amino acid residue plays a crucial role in differentiating the signaling of IR and IGF1R.

Insulin receptor Arg717 and IGF-1 receptor Arg704 play a key role in ligand binding and in receptor activation

Anna Kertisova et al.

Summary: This study investigates the transition between inactive and active states of insulin receptor (IR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) through mutation of key residues. The results show that these mutations significantly affect the binding and activation abilities of the receptors, providing further insights into the relationship between the structure and function of these receptors.

How insulin-like growth factor I binds to a hybrid insulin receptor type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor

Yibin Xu et al.

Summary: Monomers of the insulin receptor and type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor can form heterodimeric hybrid receptors, which display different ligand binding and signaling properties from homodimeric receptors. Cryoelectron microscopy structure reveals that the hybrid receptor binds insulin-like growth factor I in a similar fashion to IGF-1R, involving specific structural motifs. This study expands our understanding of this receptor family and provides insights into the key structural determinants involved in ligand binding.

Interaction of a viral insulin-like peptide with the IGF-1 receptor produces a natural antagonist

Francois Moreau et al.

Summary: This study identifies a viral insulin/IGF-1 like peptide (VILP) with antagonist properties on IGF-1 receptor signaling, leading to inhibition of cell proliferation and growth. Cryo-electron microscopy reveals that this VILP engages with IGF1R in a unique manner, resulting in receptor inactivation.

Hirofumi Nagao et al.

Summary: Insulin receptor (IR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) show distinct downstream signaling pathways and biological effects, preferentially stimulating different phosphorylation networks such as mTORC1 and Akt pathways for IR and Rho GTPases for IGF1R. Despite their high homology, IR and IGF1R exhibit unique effects on organismal function through regulating distinct phosphoproteomes in both basal and stimulated states.

Summary: The study utilized an IR binding assay to determine insulin levels, showing comparable results to RIA kits. Arginine stimulated glucose-induced insulin secretion in MIN6 cells, while dopamine had inhibitory effects. The effects of serotonin varied with concentration levels. The IR binding assay allows for higher throughput and broader range of measurements compared to RIA kits.
