Activation mechanism of the insulin receptor revealed by cryo-EM structure of the fully liganded receptor–ligand complex

Insulin signaling controls metabolic homeostasis. Here, we report the cryo-EM structure of full-length insulin receptor (IR) and insulin complex in the active state. This structure unexpectedly reveals that maximally four insulins can bind the ‘T’-shaped IR dimer at four distinct sites related by 2-...
