- SynonymINSR,Insulin receptor,IR,CD220
- SourceHuman Insulin R (28-944), His Tag (SPR verified) (INR-H52Ha) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA His 28 - Lys 944 (Accession # P06213-2).Predicted N-terminus: His 28Request for sequence
- Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 106.5 kDa. The protein migrates as 115-125 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
- EndotoxinLess than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Purity
>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
- Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Human Insulin R (28-944), His Tag (Cat. No. INR-H52Ha) captured on CM5 chip via anti-His antibody, can bind Human Insulin with an affinity constant of 249 nM as determined in a SPR assay (Biacore T200) (QC tested).
- BackgroundInsulin receptor (INSR) is also known as CD antigen CD220, which can be cleaved into the following 2 chains: Insulin receptor subunit alpha and Insulin receptor subunit beta. INSR is a tetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta chains linked by disulfide bonds. The alpha chains carry the insulin-binding regions, while the beta chains carry the kinase domain. Forms a hybrid receptor with IGF1R, the hybrid is a tetramer consisting of 1 alpha chain and 1 beta chain of INSR and 1 alpha chain and 1 beta chain of IGF1R. In addition to binding insulin, the insulin receptor can bind insulin-like growth factors (IGFI and IGFII). Isoform Short of INSR has a higher affinity for IGFII binding. When present in a hybrid receptor with IGF1R, INSR binds IGF1.
