Abstract excerpt
We constructed mutant receptors by mutating transmembrane Val922 of the human insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR). Assays of receptor kinase and autophosphorylation revealed constitutively augmented tyrosine kinase activity of V922E IGF-IR in both transient and stable expression. The constitutively active tyrosine kinase of this mutant was verified by promoted tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin...
