Insulin Receptor Antiserum and Plant Lectins Mimic the Direct Effects of Insulin on Nuclear Envelope Phosphorylation

Authors:

Abstract
Insulin directly inhibits protein phosphorylation in isolated rat liver nuclear envelopes. In the present studies, an antiserum to insulin receptor as well as the plant lectins concanavalin A and phytohemagglutinin mimicked insulin action in isolated nuclear envelopes. These studies suggest that insulin and agents that mimic it may directly regulate nuclear functions.
