Summary: Enables PTB domain binding activity; SH2 domain binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including dauer exit; determination of adult lifespan; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of with a negative effect on protein import into nucleus. Located in several cellular components, including axon; neuronal cell body; and non-motile cilium. Is expressed in several structures, including germ line; gonad; nervous system; oocyte; and vulva. Used to study Parkinson's disease and diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including dementia (multiple); glucose metabolism disease (multiple); kidney cancer (multiple); liver disease (multiple); and reproductive organ cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human IGF1R (insulin like growth factor 1 receptor); INSR (insulin receptor); and INSRR (insulin receptor related receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
