## Abstract I present here a personal perspective on more than three decades of research into the structural biology of the insulinโreceptor interaction. The solution of the threeโdimensional structure of insulin in 1969 provided a detailed understanding of the insulin surfaces involved in selfโass
Net effects of insulin on glucose entry, metabolism and other cellular processes have been well documented over the past 30-40 years. Although it is known that insulin binds to a specific cell membrane receptor protein which undergoes autophosphorylation and tyrosine kinase activation, the individua
