Recombinant Mouse IGF-I R/IGF1R Protein Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
Endotoxin Level
<0.01 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Mouse (rm) IGF-I R/IGF1R is present at 0.5 μg/mL, the concentration of rmIGF-I that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is found to be approximately 10-60 ng/mL.

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: IGF-I R/IGF1R

The insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-I R or IGF1R, designated CD221) is a 450 kDa disulfide‑linked heterotetrameric transmembrane glycoprotein consisting of two 130 kDa alpha and two 95 kDa beta  subunits (1, 4). The IGF-1 R cDNA encodes a preproreceptor that is proteolytically cleaved to produce the extracellular alpha subunit (amino acid (aa) 31-737), which contains a cysteine-rich region and two ligand‑binding fibronectin type III (FN-III) domains, and the beta  subunit (aa 742-1369), which contains an extracellular FN-III domain, transmembrane and cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domains (1). Extracellular portions of mature mouse IGF-I R share 99.7% aa identity with rat, 96% with human, canine and porcine, and 95% with bovine and equine IGF-I R. IGF-I R is expressed in all cell types and tissues. It binds insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) with high affinity, IGF-II with lower affinity, and insulin with lowest affinity (2, 3). Both IGF-I R and the structurally similar insulin receptor (Ins R) activate the same signaling pathways in response to their respective ligands (3). IGF-I R/Ins R hybrids are formed in proportion to their expression and respond primarily to IGF-I, probably down‑regulating cellular response to insulin (2, 5). IGF signaling is also modulated by IGF binding proteins and the scavenger receptor, IGF-II R (4). Expression or glycosylation of IGF-I R may be altered in cancer cells (4, 5). Mice lacking IGF-I R show intrauterine growth deficiency and die at birth due to respiratory failure, and IGF-I R mutations in humans can retarded pre- and postnatal growth (6-8). IGF-I and its receptor are particularly important for neurogenesis, with deficiency producing microcephaly and learning disorders (9-11). Low expression of IGF-I R enhances lifespan in both mouse and human by increasing resistance to oxidative stress (12, 13).  IGF-I R expression in human embryonic stem cells is important for their survival and clonogenicity (14).
