Tyrosine kinase receptor of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) and insulin receptor (IR) bind to hormones, such as insulin, IGF-1, and IGF-2, and transduces the signals across the cell membrane. However, the complete structure of the receptor and the signal transduction mechanism remains unclear. Here, we report the cryo-EM structure of the ligand-bound ectodomain in the full-length human IGF-1R. We reconstructed the IGF-1R/insulin complex at 4.7 Å and the IGF-1R/IGF-1 complex at 7.7 Å. Our structures reveal that only one insulin or one IGF-1 molecule binds to and activates the full-length human IGF-1R receptor.
胰岛素样生长因子1受体(IGF-1R)和胰岛素受体(IR)的酪氨酸激酶受体与胰岛素、IGF-1和IGF-2等激素结合,并将信号跨细胞膜传导。然而,受体的完整结构和信号转导机制仍不清楚。在此,我们报告了全长人IGF-1R中配体结合胞外域的冷冻电镜结构。我们分别以4.7 Å分辨率重构了IGF-1R/胰岛素复合物和以7.7 Å分辨率重构了IGF-1R/IGF-1复合物。我们的结构表明,只有一个胰岛素或一个IGF-1分子结合并激活全长人IGF-1R受体。
