Description
IGF-1 LR3 — Technical Data
- Name: Long R3 Insulin-like Growth Factor-1
- Common abbreviation: IGF-1 LR3 / LR3-IGF-1
- Molecule type: Recombinant/synthetic analog of IGF-1
- Research class: IGF-1 receptor signaling ligand
- Peptide length: 83 amino acids
- Approximate molecular weight: ~9.1 kDa
- Primary research target: IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R)
- Structural modification: Arginine substitution at position 3 (R3) plus a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension
- Binding characteristic: Engineered for reduced binding to certain IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) compared with native IGF-1
- Common research endpoints: IGF1R activation, PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK signaling, cell proliferation, differentiation, protein-synthesis signaling, and glucose/metabolic pathway markers
- Formulation note: Exact molecular mass and other specifications can vary slightly depending on expression system, processing, counterions, and supplier-specific preparation
