Abstract excerpt
Mutational analyses of the secreted recombinant insulin receptor extracellular domain have identified a ligand binding site composed of residues located in the L1 domain (amino acids 1-470) and at the C terminus of the alpha subunit (amino acids 705-715). To evaluate the physiological significance of this ligand binding site, we have transiently expressed cDNAs encoding full-length receptors with alanine...
