Disease:

Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) [MIM:180860]: A clinically heterogeneous condition characterized by severe intrauterine growth retardation, poor postnatal growth, craniofacial features such as a triangular shaped face and a broad forehead, body asymmetry, and a variety of minor malformations. The phenotypic expression changes during childhood and adolescence, with the facial features and asymmetry usually becoming more subtle with age. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19066168}. Note=The gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. Most of the cases of Silver-Russell syndrome are caused by the epigenetic changes of DNA hypomethylation at the telomeric imprinting control region (ICR1) on chromosome 11p15, involving the H19 and IGF2 genes.; Growth restriction, severe, with distinctive facies (GRDF) [MIM:616489]: A disease characterized by severe prenatal and postnatal growth restriction, facial dysmorphism, and short stature in the presence of normal or slightly elevated growth hormone levels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26154720}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function [CC]:

The insulin-like growth factors possess growth-promoting activity. Major fetal growth hormone in mammals. Plays a key role in regulating fetoplacental development. IGF-II is influenced by placental lactogen. Also involved in tissue differentiation. Positively regulates myogenic transcription factor MYOD1 function by facilitating the recruitment of transcriptional coactivators, thereby controlling muscle terminal differentiation (By similarity). In adults, involved in glucose metabolism in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and liver (Probable). Acts as a ligand for integrin which is required for IGF2 signaling (PubMed:28873464). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P09535, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28873464, ECO:0000305|PubMed:24593700}.; Preptin undergoes glucose-mediated co-secretion with insulin, and acts as physiological amplifier of glucose-mediated insulin secretion. Exhibits osteogenic properties by increasing osteoblast mitogenic activity through phosphoactivation of MAPK1 and MAPK3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16912056}.

Analysis Summary:

The IGF2 locus is imprinted. Paternal inherited gene is expressed, while the maternal inherited gene is imprinted, hence silenced. Transcripts from 5 promoters P0, P1, P2, P3 and P4 code for the same protein but are differentially regulated in a developmental stage and tissue specificity. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16531418}.
