Scientific Background

Target data Signaling adapter protein that participates in the signal transduction from two prominent receptor tyrosine kinases, insulin receptor/INSR and insulin-like growth factor I receptor/IGF1R (PubMed : 25879670). Plays therefore an important role in development, growth, glucose homeostasis as well as lipid metabolism (PubMed : 24616100). Upon phosphorylation by the insulin receptor, functions as a signaling scaffold that propagates insulin action through binding to SH2 domain-containing proteins including the p85 regulatory subunit of PI3K, NCK1, NCK2, GRB2 or SHP2 (PubMed : 15316008, PubMed : 19109239). Recruitment of GRB2 leads to the activation of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor SOS1 which in turn triggers the Ras/Raf/MEK/MAPK signaling cascade (By similarity). Activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway is responsible for most of insulin metabolic effects in the cell, and the Ras/Raf/MEK/MAPK is involved in the regulation of gene expression and in cooperation with the PI3K pathway regulates cell growth and differentiation. Acts a positive regulator of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway through suppression of DVL2 autophagy-mediated degradation leading to cell proliferation (PubMed : 24616100). Plays a role in cell cycle progression by promoting a robust spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) during M-phase (PubMed : 32554797). In macrophages, IL4-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS2 leads to the recruitment and activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) (PubMed : 19109239).
