Preferred Label : receptor, igf type 1;
MeSH definition : A protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is closely related in structure to the INSULIN
RECEPTOR. Although commonly referred to as the IGF-I receptor, it binds both IGF-I
and IGF-II with high affinity. It is comprised of a tetramer of two alpha and two
beta subunits which are derived from cleavage of a single precursor protein. The beta
subunit contains an intrinsic tyrosine kinase domain.;
