IRS-1 Polyclonal Antibody recognizes insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1), a cytoplasmic signaling adaptor that transmits signals from activated insulin and insulin-like growth factor receptors to downstream pathways. IRS1 does not possess intrinsic enzymatic activity. Instead, phosphorylation of IRS1 creates docking sites for intracellular signaling proteins, enabling it to organize signaling complexes that connect receptor activation with metabolic and growth-related cellular responses.
IRS1 is an important mediator of insulin receptor signaling and contributes to activation of pathways including PI3K-AKT and RAS-MAPK. Through these signaling networks, IRS1 participates in glucose metabolism, protein and lipid synthesis, cell growth, survival, and differentiation. IRS1 activity is regulated through phosphorylation at numerous tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues, providing mechanisms through which receptor activity, nutrient availability, and feedback signaling can modify its function.
Altered IRS1 expression and signaling are extensively investigated in insulin resistance, diabetes, metabolic disease, and cancer biology. Changes in IRS1 abundance, phosphorylation, localization, or degradation can influence cellular responsiveness to insulin and other growth factors. IRS1-mediated signaling is also studied in malignant cells because pathways downstream of this adaptor can affect proliferation, survival, metabolism, and responses to extracellular growth signals. Its position downstream of both insulin and insulin-like growth factor receptors connects IRS1 with metabolic as well as mitogenic signaling.
This Insulin Receptor Substrate 1 Polyclonal Antibody is a rabbit polyclonal generated against recombinant human IRS1 corresponding to amino acids 1041-1242. The antibody provides a polyclonal reagent for investigating IRS1 expression and complements monoclonal antibodies directed against this important component of insulin and growth factor signaling. NSJ Bioreagents supplies this antibody for research use only.
An IRS-1 Polyclonal Antibody can be used to investigate insulin receptor signaling, insulin-like growth factor signaling, PI3K-AKT and MAPK pathways, glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, cellular growth, and cancer biology.
For broader IRS1 validation across multiple tissues, cell lines, and applications, see our IRS1 Antibody 10I3 / Insulin Receptor Substrate 1 Monoclonal Antibody page.
Titration of the IRS-1 Polyclonal Antibody / Insulin Receptor Substrate 1 Polyclonal Antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
Human partial recombinant protein (AA 1041-1242) was used as the immunogen for this IRS-1 Polyclonal Antibody.
The lyophilized IRS-1 Polyclonal Antibody can be stored at 4oC to -20oC. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freeze/thaws.
