Phospho-Insulin/IGF Receptor Antibody Sampler Kit #8338

    Product Information

    Product Description

    The Phospho-Insulin/IGF Receptor Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of evaluating total Insulin Receptor and IGF-I Receptor β protein levels as well as Insulin and IGF-I Receptor β phosphorylated at specific sites. The kit includes enough antibody to perform two western blot experiments with each primary antibody.

    Background

    Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that is widely expressed in many cell lines and cell types within fetal and postnatal tissues (1-3). Receptor autophosphorylation follows binding of the IGF-I and IGF-II ligands. Three tyrosine residues within the kinase domain (Tyr1131, Tyr1135, and Tyr1136) are the earliest major autophosphorylation sites (4). Phosphorylation of these three tyrosine residues is necessary for kinase activation (5,6). Insulin receptors (IRs) share significant structural and functional similarity with IGF-I receptors, including the presence of an equivalent tyrosine cluster (Tyr1146/1150/1151) within the kinase domain activation loop. Tyrosine autophosphorylation of IRs is one of the earliest cellular responses to insulin stimulation (7). Autophosphorylation begins with phosphorylation at Tyr1146 and either Tyr1150 or Tyr1151, while full kinase activation requires triple tyrosine phosphorylation (8).
