• Description: The insulin receptor is a cell surface receptor that binds the hormone insulin, a peptide hormone. It belongs to the class of tyrosine kinase receptors and is activated by the binding of insulin to its extracellular alpha subunit. Insulin causes an increase in glucose uptake in muscle cells and adipocytes by stimulating the activity of several enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism. The insulin receptor also has ion channel activity and can activate potassium channels. Insulin receptors are found on many different cell types, including liver cells, fat cells, and brain cells. The protein is composed of two alpha subunits that form a disulfide bond to create a functional dimer. Insulin receptors have been used as research tools for studying protein interactions, ligands, and pharmacology.END>>
