Entrez gene ID | | 3643 |
Official gene symbol | | INSR |
Full name | | insulin receptor |
Aliases | | ,CD220,HHF5, |
Gene summary | | After removal of the precursor signal peptide, the insulin receptor precursor is post-translationally cleaved into two chains (alpha and beta) that are covalently linked. Binding of insulin to the insulin receptor (INSR) stimulates glucose uptake. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq] |
