Abstract excerpt
IGF1 plays a critical role in cell proliferation and survival. Previous studies show that IGF1 binds to integrin αvβ3 and induces αvβ3-IGF1-IGF1R ternary complex formation. However, how IGF1 binding to αvβ3 leads to IGF1R activation is unclear. Previous studies showed that Gα13, a guanine nucleotide-binding protein of the G12 class of Gα proteins, binds to the integrin β3 tail through the EEE motif upon...
