| Source | Rabbit | | Reactivity | Human;Mouse;Rat | | Background | Insulin Receptor Substrate 2 is one of the major substrates of the insulin receptor kinase. In vertebrates, IRS-2 functions as a scaffolding protein to coordinate separate branches of the Insulin/IGF-signaling cascades. IRS-2 is essential for normal nutrient homeostasis because it mediates both peripheral insulin action and the effect of IGF-1 on B-cell growth. Mice lacking IRS-2 fail to maintain sufficient compensatory insulin secretion and develop diabetes as young adults. | | References | [1] Sun, X.J. et al. (1991) Nature 352, 73-77.
