SEVERE insulin resistance is the central metabolic feature of a number of clinically diverse syndromes,1including the type A syndrome (young female patients with insulin resistance, acanthosis nigricans, and virilization),2leprechaunism,3the Rabson–Mendenhall syndrome,4and lipoatropic diabetes.5A reduced expression or function of insulin receptors has been demonstrated in freshly obtained cells from a number of patients with these diseases.2,6789The existence of familial clusterings and the presence of defects in cultured cell lines7,101112have led to the view that receptor defects in these disorders may be primary. The cloning of the complementary DNA (cDNA) of the normal human insulin . . .
