Functional characterization of a clinically significant variant of IGF1R (M1054I) - a critical residue involved in defining the binding of small molecules in the allosteric pocket of IGF1R.

Abstract excerpt

IGF1R, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is crucial for cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Overexpression of IGF1R is linked to cancer and resistance to therapies, making it a target for drug development. Previously, we identified an allosteric binding pocket in IGF1R, which could be exploited for the development of IGF1R specific small molecule inhibitors. A recent study linked M1054I variant to growth...
