To characterize the Leu 193 mutant insulin receptor, which was found in a patient with extreme insulin resistance, the mutant insulin receptor was overexpressed in Rat-1 fibroblasts by transfection of mutated insulin receptor cDNA. In the pulse-chase experiment, the cleavage of the proreceptors to the matured receptor subunits was impaired in the cells expressing Leu 193 insulin receptor and therefore, the mutant proreceptors were accumulated in the cell. Insulin bound to the Leu 193 insulin receptor on the cell surface with normal affinity, although the mutation was in the alpha-subunit of the insulin receptor. Therefore, the Leu 193 mutation impaired proreceptor cleavage but not insulin binding.

D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D011972 Receptor, Insulin A cell surface receptor for INSULIN. It comprises a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits which are derived from cleavage of a single precursor protein. The receptor contains an intrinsic TYROSINE KINASE domain that is located within the beta subunit. Activation of the receptor by INSULIN results in numerous metabolic changes including increased uptake of GLUCOSE into the liver, muscle, and ADIPOSE TISSUE.
