Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) is a gene that encodes a protein that is phosphorylated by insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. The protein is important for insulin regulation. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift deletions and insertions, and in-frame deletions are observed in cancers such as intestinal cancer, lung cancer, and stomach cancer.

IRS1 is altered in 1.78% of all cancers with lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, bladder urothelial carcinoma, and breast invasive ductal carcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].

The most common alterations in IRS1 are IRS1 Mutation (1.45%), IRS1 Loss (0.07%), IRS1 Amplification (0.05%), IRS1 E37K (0.03%), and IRS1 K52del (0.02%) [3].
