Structural basis of the activation of type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor

The activation mechanism of type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) is not fully understood. Here, the authors determine the cryo-EM structure of full-length, IGF1-bound IGF1R in the active conformation, providing insights into how IGF1 triggers receptor activation.
