SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF HUMAN INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR 1: A NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE AND RESTRAINED MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDY
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 2036417
Disease
[IGF1A_HUMAN] Defects in IGF1 are the cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency (IGF1 deficiency) [MIM:608747]. IGF1 deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth retardation, sensorineural deafness and mental retardation.
Function
[IGF1A_HUMAN] The insulin-like growth factors, isolated from plasma, are structurally and functionally related to insulin but have a much higher growth-promoting activity. May be a physiological regulator of [1-14C]-2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) transport and glycogen synthesis in osteoblasts. Stimulates glucose transport in rat bone-derived osteoblastic (PyMS) cells and is effective at much lower concentrations than insulin, not only regarding glycogen and DNA synthesis but also with regard to enhancing glucose uptake.[1]
