Insulin receptor isoforms and insulin receptor/insulin-like growth factor receptor hybrids in physiology and disease
{{output}}
In mammals, the insulin receptor (IR) gene has acquired an additional exon, exon 11. This exon may be skipped in a developmental and tissue-specific manner. The IR, therefore, occurs in two isoforms (exon 11 minus IR-A and exon 11 plus IR-B). The most relevant... ...
