Description

Insulin-like receptor subunit beta;Protein kinase domain-containing protein;receptor protein-tyrosine kinase

Gene Summary

Enables PTB domain binding activity; SH2 domain binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including dauer exit; larval feeding behavior; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of with a negative effect on protein import into nucleus. Located in several cellular components, including axon; neuronal cell body; and non-motile cilium. Is spanning component of plasma membrane. Is expressed in gonad; hypodermis; intestine; and nervous system. Used to study Parkinson's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including dementia (multiple); diabetes mellitus (multiple); kidney cancer (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and reproductive organ cancer (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including IGF1R (insulin like growth factor 1 receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
