Abstract
Insulin receptor is purified in accordance with this invention to a level sufficient to enable amino acid sequencing thereof. DNA encoding insulin receptor is provided, as well as methods for synthesizing insulin receptor or its mutant in heterologous host cells transformed with vectors containing such DNA. Knowledge of the amino acid sequence for insulin receptor enables the preparation of novel immunogenic conjugates and antibodies raised against such conjugates. Novel therapeutically useful forms of the insulin receptor and anti-receptor antibodies are described.
