'''Insulin receptor''' (IR) is a transmembrane receptor activated by insulin, IGF-I and IGF-II. IR is important for the regulation of glucose homeostasis and its malfunction can cause diabetics and cancer. The IR is a dimer where each monomer contains 8 distinct domains. The β-chain contains a tyrosine kinase catalytic domain (TK).<br /> | '''Insulin receptor''' (IR) is a transmembrane receptor activated by insulin, IGF-I and IGF-II.
