Research background

IGF-1 LR3 is a 83-residue recombinant analog of insulin-like growth factor 1, extended by a 13-residue N-terminal sequence and substituted at position 3 (Arg for Glu). Both modifications sharply reduce binding to IGF binding proteins.

Mechanism of action

Agonist at the IGF-1 receptor, a receptor tyrosine kinase signalling through IRS-1 to the PI3K-Akt and MAPK cascades. Because IGFBP affinity is reduced by roughly two orders of magnitude, free-fraction concentration in culture media is far higher than for native IGF-1, which is the reason it is preferred in cell-culture supplementation research.

Areas of scientific investigation

  • Cell-culture growth supplementation studies
  • PI3K-Akt and MAPK pathway activation
  • IGF binding protein interaction research
  • Myoblast proliferation and differentiation models

Laboratory handling

Reconstitution

As a recombinant protein this material is more shear- and pH-sensitive than short synthetic peptides. Weakly acidic diluents (for example 0.01 M HCl or 10 mM acetic acid) are commonly used before dilution into buffer; never vortex.

Stability

Aqueous stocks are typically aliquoted at first reconstitution and stored at -20 °C or below to avoid freeze-thaw cycling, which drives aggregation in this molecule.

Packaging

Single sequence per vial, sealed under inert gas in USP Type I borosilicate glass with a butyl rubber stopper and crimped aluminium overseal. Each vial carries a printed PRIMEGEN LABS label with product name, strength, lot number, manufacture and retest dates, storage temperature and a QR code linking to the lot record. Vials ship in a rigid foam insert inside a protective mailer at ambient temperature.
