The type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) is involved in growth and
survival of normal and neoplastic cells. A ligand-dependent conformational change
is thought to regulate IGF1R activity, but the nature of this change is unclear.
We point out an underappreciated dimer in the crystal structure of the related
Insulin Receptor (IR) with Insulin bound that allows direct comparison with
unliganded IR and suggests a mechanism by which ligand regulates IR/IGF1R
activity. We test this mechanism in a series of biochemical and biophysical
assays and find the IGF1R ectodomain maintains an autoinhibited state in which
the TMs are held apart. Ligand binding releases this constraint, allowing TM
association and unleashing an intrinsic propensity of the intracellular regions
to autophosphorylate. Enzymatic studies of full-length and kinase-containing
fragments show phosphorylated IGF1R is fully active independent of ligand and the
extracellular-TM regions. The key step triggered by ligand binding is thus
autophosphorylation.
