Dissecting domain-specific functions of the IGF2/M6P receptor

Abstract:

The P-type lectin Mannose 6-phosphate/Insulin-like growth factor 2 receptor (M6P/IGF2R) is a type I trans-membrane protein with 15 homologous extracellular domains that bind several ligands. While domains 3, 5 and 9 bind to Mannose 6-Phosphate (M6P), domain 11 binds to IGF2 (Insulin-like growth factor 2). In mice, igf2r expression is monoallelic and full knock-out of the receptor maternal allele (Igf2r-m/+p) results in developmental abnormalities and neonatal lethality...
