    basic FUNCTION
  • insulin-like growth factor 1, receptor with high affinity
  • receptor tyrosine kinase, class II, with potent mitogenic, antiapoptotic and transforming activities required for oncogenic transformation
  • activates PI3K
  • positive regulation of cell proliferation
  • inhibits MAP3K5 (complexed with, in perinuclear structures) and then supresses stimulation of JNK/p38 pathway and induction of programmed cell death
  • binds its ligand and then initiates metabolic cascades resulting in stimulation of protein synthesis, glucose intake, glycogen synthesis or lipid storage
  • its activation prevents high glucose-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, cytochrome-c release and apoptosis
    • CELLULAR PROCESS cell cycle

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule nucleotide,
  • ATP binding
    • protein
  • IGF1 binding
  • linked to RAS/RAF/MAPK and PI3K/PKB/AKT signal transduction cascade
  • associates with SNAP29
  • binding to PIK3R3
  • MAP3K5 binding
  • interaction with PTK2 (role in phosphorylation, signaling and stability of the IGF1R)
  • interaction with PTK2 plays an important role in cancer cell survival, providing survival signals in human pancreatic cancer cells
  • CAMP may act as a partial agonist for IGF1R, with subsequent intra-cellular signaling activation driven by the binding of ARRB1 to the IGF1R
  • PDZK1 expression was indirectly regulated by ESR1 stimulation, requiring insulinlike growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) expression and function
  • UBQLN1 interacts with IGF1R and ESYT2 through the STI domains and stabilizes these proteins through its UBA domain
  • IGF1R is the functional receptor for DIPK2A
  • CD36 functioned through ubiquitination-dependent binding to IRS1 and inhibiting its interaction with CUL7, a key component of the multisubunit cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex
  • IRS1 modulates how long ligand-activated IGFIR remains at the cell surface before undergoing endocytosis in cell
    • cell & other
