Polylysine increases the number of insulin binding sites in soluble insulin receptor preparations.
The effects of cationic polyamino acids on insulin binding to soluble insulin receptor preparations were studied. Incubation of partially or fully purified receptor preparations with polylysine (pLys) increased by several-fold the amount of [125I]insulin that remained associated with the receptor, as determined both by precipitation of receptor-insulin complexes by polyethylene glycol or by sep...
متن کاملPolylysine specifically activates the insulin-dependent insulin receptor protein kinase.
We have extended these observations to examine the role of polylysine on the divalent metal ion requirement for ligand-stimulated protein kinase activity and the transmembrane signaling mechanism of both the human placenta insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) receptors. Polylysine (0.2-1 microM) was found to activate maximally the alpha 2 beta 2 heterotetrameric insulin receptor aut...
متن کاملZataria multiflora increases insulin sensitivity and PPARγ gene expression in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats
Objective(s):In insulin resistance, the insulin action in liver, muscles and adipocytes decreases and result in hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia. In this study we evaluate the effect of Zataria multiflora extract on insulin sensitivity in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats, since this extract was shown antihyperglycemic effect in streptozotocin induced diabetes in rats. ...
متن کاملInsulin binding and insulin-dependent phosphorylation of the insulin receptor solubilized from human erythrocytes.
Insulin receptors were extracted from human erythrocytes contained in 100 ml of blood with the nonionic detergent Triton X-100 with almost 100% yield. The solubilized receptor had binding characteristics similar to those of the intact cell. Using 125I-monoiodoinsulin as tracer and a computer-assisted statistical curve-fitting program, a cooperative model gave values of 1.7 X 10(9) M-1 for the K...
متن کاملCharacterization of dFOXO binding sites upstream of the Insulin Receptor P2 promoter across the Drosophila phylogeny
The insulin/TOR signal transduction pathway plays a critical role in determining such important traits as body and organ size, metabolic homeostasis and life span. Although this pathway is highly conserved across the animal kingdom, the affected traits can exhibit important differences even between closely related species. Evolutionary studies of regulatory regions require the reliable identifi...
