Description: INSR (Insulin Receptor) is a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits that are coded by a single gene and are joined by disulfide bonds, a mechanism parallel to that of its ligand, insulin. It belongs to the large class of tyrosine kinase receptors. The insulin receptor mediates their activity by causing the addition of a phosphate group to particular tyrosines on certain proteins within a cell. The INSR gene spans more than 120 kb and has 22 exons. Functional studies of the INSR SNPs show no effect on mRNA levels or splicing in peripheral blood leukocytes or on binding of insuln to mononuclear cells.
Immunogen: Amino acids 1353-1372 (RSYEEHIPYTHMNGGKKNGR) were used as the immunogen for this Insulin Receptor antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the Insulin Receptor antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
