Tuning Insulin Receptor Signaling Using <i>De Novo</i> Designed Agonists
2024-10-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Binding of insulin to the insulin receptor (IR) induces conformational changes in the extracellular portion of the receptor that lead to activation of the intracellular kinase domain and the AKT and MAPK pathways, and downstream modulation of glucose metabolism and cell proliferation. We reasoned that designed agonists that induce different conformational changes in the receptor might induce diff...
