General description

Insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) is among the four IRS proteins (IRS-1-IRS-4) that mediate signalling by insulin receptor (IR) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor. IRS-1 has a pleckstrin homology domain and a phosphotyrosine-binding domain. Phosphorylation of the Tyr1179 residue in the SH-1 negatively regulates insulin. IRS-1 has the abililty to translocate to the nucleus, the mechanism of which is not very clear. Estrogen receptors (ER) α and β have a strong affinity to IRS-1, an important interaction in breast cancers and medulloblastomas. The expression of IRS-1 in prostate cancer is associated with lower tumor cell invasiveness. Along with ER α, IRS-1 also modulates transcriptional activity involved in the development of breast and prostate cancer. The signalling pathway involving IGF-IR-IRS-1 in cells expressing JCV T-antigen has been reported to affect the proliferation, survival and DNA repair in the cells. The phosphorylation of IRS-1 at Tyr896 is required for IRS-1-Grb 2 association
Anti-phospho-IRS-1 (pTyr8969) specifically recognizes human IRS-1 (pTyr896). It may react with mouse and rat (100% homology) IRS-1.

Immunogen

synthetic phosphopeptide derived from the region of insulin receptor substrate-1 that is phosphorylated on tyrosine 896. The sequence is conserved among multiple species including human, mouse, and rat.

Application

Anti-phospho-IRS-1 (pTyr896) antibody may be used for detection by immunoblotting, in insulin-stimulated CHO cell line, at a working dilution of 1:1000.

Physical form

Solution in Dulbecco′s phosphate buffered saline (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), 50% glycerol with 1 mg/mL BSA (IgG, protease free), and 0.05% sodium azide.

IRS-1 is a unique cytosolic protein that becomes tyrosine phosphorylated during insulin stimulation of intact cells and immediately associates with the phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PtdIns 3'-kinase). The insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) receptor also mediated the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and increased
