Abstract excerpt
Classical insulin and IGF-1 receptors are alpha 2 beta 2 heterotetrameric complexes synthesized from two identical alpha beta half-receptor precursors. Recent data strongly suggests, however, that nonidentical alpha beta half-receptor precursors can assemble to generate hybrid holoreceptor species both in vivo and in vitro. This review focuses primarily on two types of hybrid receptors. The first type is an...
