Scientific Background :IRS1 is the substrate for the insulin tyrosine kinase receptor and it is expressed in a variety of insulin-responsive tissues. IRS1 is a docking protein with no intrinsic enzymatic activity. Via its SH2 domains, IRS1 facilitates interactions between key players in insulin signaling such as the insulin receptor. 14-3-3 competitively binds with IRS1 against the insulin receptor (1). This competition has implications towards the regulation of insulin sensitivity. IRS1 has been linked to colorectal cancer and diet via the regulation of plasma insulin levels. Thus, variation of IRS1 function may have implications in colorectal cancer (2). IRS1 has several Ser/Thr phosphorylation sites including Ser312, which is sensitive to TNF-alpha or calyculin A treatment (3) and Ser636/639, which is associated with S6K and mTOR activation (4).
