{"product_id":"biolegend-678352","title":"Biolegend, 678352, Purified anti-IRS1 Antibody, 100μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eInsulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) is a crucial signaling adapter protein that mediates the effects of insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) by transmitting signals from their receptors to intracellular pathways such as PI3K\/Akt and MAPK. The regulation of IRS1 involves phosphorylation at serine\/threonine and tyrosine residues, which modulates its activity and stability. Dysregulation of IRS1 is implicated in several diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus and Alzheimer’s disease. In type 2 diabetes, defects in IRS1 signaling contribute to insulin resistance, while in Alzheimer’s disease, altered IRS1 signaling is associated with cognitive decline and neurodegeneration.\u003cbr\u003e\n100μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Rat\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Recombinant fragment of human IRS1 protein\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/mL\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: WB - Quality tested\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by western blotting.

However, due to post-translational modifications like phosphorylation, it often appears as a 180 kDa protein when analyzed via SDS-PAGE.\u003cbr\u003e\nDistribution: Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) is primarily located in the cytoplasm of the cell. However, upon activation by insulin or IGF-1, it is translocated to the plasma membrane where it interacts with the insulin receptor. It can also be found associated with the plasma membrane and other intracellular membrane-bound organelles as well as the nucleus.\u003cbr\u003e\nFunction: - Signal Transduction: Mediates insulin and IGF-1 signaling by transmitting signals from their receptors to intracellular pathways like PI3K\/Akt and MAPK. - Metabolic Regulation: Plays a key role in glucose uptake, lipid metabolism, and overall energy homeostasis - Cell Growth and Survival: Involved in cellular processes such as growth, differentiation, and survival\u003cbr\u003e\nInteraction: - Insulin Receptor (INSR): IRS1 binds to the insulin receptor via its pleckstrin homology (PH) domain and phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain, facilitating downstream signaling. - IGF-1 Receptor (IGF1R): IRS1 interacts with the IGF-1 receptor, promoting growth and metabolic effects. - PI3K (Phosphoinositide 3-kinase): IRS1 interacts with the regulatory subunit of PI3K (PIK3R1) through phosphorylated tyrosine residues, activating the PI3K\/Akt pathway. - Grb2 (Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2): This interaction links IRS1 to the MAPK signaling pathway, influencing cell growth and differentiation. - SOCS7 (Suppressor of cytokine signaling - SOCS7 binds to IRS1 and can inhibit its signaling, acting as a negative regulator. - JAK2 (Janus kinase 2): IRS1 interacts with JAK2, which is involved in cytokine signaling and can modulate insulin signaling\u003cbr\u003e\nAntigen References: Zheng M, et al. 3Biotech. 11(179): s13205-021-02738-3 Martinez-Baez A, et al. 2024.
