Fig. 7. Functional selectivity of IR.

Fig. 7

a The cryo-EM structure of extended T-shaped IR bound to two S597 (PDB ID: 8DTL). b The cryo-EM structure of partial domains of IR bound to IM459 (PDB ID: 7U6D). Detailed binding mode of S597 (c) and IM459 (d). Both peptides bind to site-1 and site-2’ simultaneously, similar to the A62 in the arrowhead-shaped IR, which forms a bridge. e Proposed model of the functional selectivity of IR. Cross-linking between L1 and FnIII-1’ with the dissociation of αCT′ from L1 establishes the intermediate state of IR, which may be critical for its metabolic effects.
