Structural mechanism of insulin receptor activation by a dimeric aptamer agonist

Abstract Insulin binding to the insulin receptor (IR) triggers signaling pathways that regulate glucose uptake and cell growth. In previous work, we identified a DNA aptamer, A62, which partially activates the IR. During engineering aptamers for improved in vivo stability, we discovered that crossli...
