Liver plasma membranes bind insulin in a complex fashion via three prominent disulfide-linked insulin receptor structures of 360K, 300K, and 260K molecular weight. To determine if the complex binding is explained by different binding affinities among the different structures, 125I-insulin was specifically cross-linked to the binding sites and the amount of radiolabeled insulin was determined after SDS-gel electrophoresis. The insulin binding characteristics of each structure were similar to the binding properties of the intact membrane. The Scatchard plot for each structure was curvilinear and the Kd values for the high and low affinity components were similar to the membrane values. Thus, the curvilinear Scatchard plot of insulin binding to liver membranes is also a feature of each receptor structure and is not a function of different receptors with different binding properties.
