Diabetes and the Female Reproductive System
2013, Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Insulin and IGF-1 are closely related peptides. They share sequence homology and have nearly identical 3-D structures.35 The hormone receptors also have significant homology, featuring a heterotetrameric structure where 2 α subunits serve as the hormone binding site and 2 β subunits become autophosphorylated and acquire tyrosine kinase activity.
Insulin-like growth factor - Oestradiol crosstalk and mammary gland tumourigenesis
2013, Biochimica et Biophysica Acta - Reviews on CancerCitation Excerpt :Ancillary members of the axis include IGFBP related proteins IGFBPrP-1 and 2 — sometimes called IGFBP-7 and -8 [3,4], specific and non-specific IGFBP proteases [5] and an acid labile subunit (ALS) protein which complexes with IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-5 in serum and interstitial fluids [6]. IGF-1 and -2 are small (~ 7.5 kDa) polypeptides which show structural and functional homology to insulin [7] although unlike insulin IGFs are expressed by several tissues and cell types. The IGF-1R also shows a high degree of homology with the insulin receptor (IR) and hybrid IGF-1R/insulin receptor species have been reported for both the A and B isoforms of the insulin receptor (IR-A/IR-B) comprising an IGF-1R αβ dimer combined with an αβ dimer of the IR-A or IR-B isoform.
Separation of minor protein components from whey protein isolates by heparin affinity chromatography
2008, International Dairy JournalCitation Excerpt :IGF-I is a mitogenic polypeptide structurally similar to insulin. This molecule has a role in the development of various tissues and stimulates cellular growth, differentiation and metabolism (Guvakova, 2007; Zapf, Schmid, & Froesch, 1984). TGF-β2 is bound to a latent binding protein and liberated by acidic or basic pH, heat-treatment, changes in ionic strength, or various chaotropic agents (Elfstrand, Lindmark-Månsson, Paulsson, Nyberg, & Åkesson, 2002; Gauthier et al., 2006).
