IRS1 insulin receptor substrate 1

Gene ID: 3667, updated on 13-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HIRS-1

Summary

This gene encodes a protein which is phosphorylated by insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. Mutations in this gene are associated with type II diabetes and susceptibility to insulin resistance. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
