Spontaneous Dimerization and Distinct Packing Modes of Transmembrane Domains in Receptor Tyrosine Kinases

Lev Levintov, Biswajit Gorai, Harish Vashisth

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to show that transmembrane domains of IR and IGF1R spontaneously dimerize in plasma membranes with distinct packing configurations.

Viral Insulin/IGF-like Peptides Selectively Activate Host Insulin/IGF Signaling pathways during Grouper Iridovirus Infection

Aurélien Chuard, Kalaimagal Nesarajah, Khadija Danazumi, Kaitlin Reiners, Zhang Fa, Lev Levintov, Harish Vashisth, Richard D. DiMarchi, Emrah Altındiş

This study identifies GIV-VILP as a viral mimic of host insulin/IGF-1 that selectively activates the Akt/PI3K pathway during infection, enhancing viral replication.
