Elucidating the Activation Mechanism of the Insulin-Family Proteins with Molecular Dynamics Simulations

The insulin-family proteins bind to their own receptors, but insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) can also bind to the A isoform of the insulin receptor (IR-A), activating unique and alternative signaling pathways from those of insulin. Although extensive studies of insulin have revealed that its...
