Subcellular Location | Secreted |
Developmental Stage | NA |
Similarity | Belongs to the insulin family. |
Tissue Specificity | All the isoforms are expressed in embryos; juvenile and adult liver; muscle and brain. At least one isoform is expressed in heart; kidney; testes; ovary; adipose tissue and spleen of juvenile salmon. |
Post Translational Modification | NA |
Function | The insulin-like growth factors; isolated from plasma; are structurally and functionally related to insulin but have a much higher growth-promoting activity. Acts as a ligand for IGF1R. Binds to the alpha subunit of IGF1R; leading to the activation of the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity which autophosphorylates tyrosine residues in the beta subunit thus initiatiating a cascade of down-stream signaling events leading to activation of the PI3K-AKT/PKB and the Ras-MAPK pathways. Binds to integrins. Its binding to integrins and subsequent ternary complex formation with integrins and IGFR1 are essential for IGF1 signaling. |
