The subunit structure of the insulin receptor and molecular interactions with major histocompatibility complex antigens.
Insulin receptors were labeled with 125I-photoreactive insulin (specifically labeling alpha-subunits) and by insulin-stimulated autophosphorylation (specifically labeling beta-subunits). The results show that the insulin receptor exists under different free and disulfide-linked combinations of alpha and beta subunits. Moreover, the insulin receptor is closely associated to class I antigens of the major histocompatibility complex to form a high molecular weight multi-molecular membrane complex.
