-'''Insulin-like growth factor receptors''' (IGFR) are transmembrane receptors which are stimulated by insulin-like growth factors (IGF).  IGFR contains 2 extracellular α chains and 2 transmembranal β chains.  Upon binding of IGF, a tyrosine in the β chain becomes autophosphorylated and triggers a cascade of intracellular signaling.
