Preferred Term:

receptores de insulina

Definition:
Receptor de insulina de la superficie celular, compuesto de un tetrámero de dos subunidades alfa y dos subunidades beta derivadas de la división de una única proteína precursora. Contiene un dominio intrínseco de tirosina quinasa localizado en la subunidad beta. Su activación mediante insulina produce numerosos cambios metabólicos, incluida una absorción mayor de glucosa en el hígado, los músculos y el tejido adiposo.
