IGF-1 belongs to the insulin gene family and is a mitogenic polypeptide growth factor that stimulates the proliferation and survival of various cell types, including muscle, bone, and cartilage tissue.
LR3 IGF-1 is a long-term acting analog of human IGF-1 specifically designed and manufactured for mammalian cell culture to support large-scale manufacturing of recombinant biopharmaceuticals. It differs from native IGF-1 in that it possesses an arginine instead of a glutamic acid at the third position in its amino acid sequence ("arginine 3"), and also has an additional 13 amino acids at N-terminus (MFPAMPLLSLFVN) ("long"), for a total of 83 amino acids (relative to the 70 of IGF-1).
